Everyone Wears Chacos
\n<\/strong>All the time. To the farmers market, with their black lab\/ranch dog mix. When they float the river. To brunch. To dinner with your parents. On a first date. To their wedding. To work. On an airplane. In a snowstorm. On their eighteen-mile wilderness hike.<\/p>\n

Really, everywhere. And if they aren\u2019t wearing Chacos, they\u2019re more than likely barefoot. But that bare foot will have the telltale signs of a Chaco-wearer: Chaco tan lines. Whether they\u2019re thick strips of white from the classic Z\/2 or a patchwork of thinner white lines from the strappy ZX, people in a rafting town are \u2018wearing\u2019 Chacos even when they aren\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Folks don<\/strong>\u2019t talk about the weather, they talk about the CFS.
\n<\/strong>CFS stands for cubic feet per second and it refers to the river or creek conditions. The mathematical formula is river width x depth x speed (flow and gradient) = CFS. CFS readings are taken at select points along rivers, and readings vary with location. As a general rule, the higher the CFS reading, the more water is flowing past that point at that time. You can check the CFS of most rivers at any given time online. If the rafting population could take over a news station, they\u2019d inevitably replace the meteorologist with a hydrologist. Walk through town, grocery stores, cafes, etc. and you\u2019ll no doubt hear these exchanges repeatedly:<\/p>\n

\u201cDid you hear the Lochsa\u2019s up to five feet on the bridge?\u201d
\n\u201cNah, flows have been climbing, fishing wont be any good.\u201d
\n\u201cIt\u2019s up at around 20,000\u2014do you think the play wave is in?\u201d
\n\u201cI wonder what flow we\u2019ll peak at this year?\u201d
\n\u201cOh man, the river is down to 3,000, I bet the kerchunk rock is out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

River Clean-Ups are Better Attended Than Church
\n<\/strong>The sure sign of a rafting town is they treat their river like another member of the crew. Folks are always down to clean up trash, support their local river non-profits and speak up on behalf of a river that can\u2019t speak for itself. Rafting towns are incubators for passionate leaders in the conservation community, from politicians to business owners to media collectives.<\/p>\n

PBR Always Sells Out
\n<\/strong>Mix it with OJ for a morning pick-me-up and tomato juice for that mid-day snack. A 24-pack will fit in the NRS drag bag<\/a> and will cool off in the river in no time. This easy-drinkin\u2019 lager may have its roots in Wisconsin but it\u2019s made a name for itself on the banks of any river in the west. Everyone\u2019s drinking it. Even the high-brow IPA snobs can be caught sipping a cold Peeber on the water. With all that being said, you\u2019d think after twenty-five years the local grocer would have the PBR supply and demand figured out but\u2026oh well. Guess you\u2019re drinking Hamms tonight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Summer Population: 5,000. Winter Population: 27 and a few dogs
\n<\/strong>Rafting towns have the tendency to be vibrant hubs of community and activity in the warm months, then empty out in the winter. In the summer, expect the majority of the people you meet to be either a) a guide b) a former guide c) a pro kayaker\/SUP boarder\/boater d) homeless. In the winter, you\u2019re likely to run into a few harried outfitters, a few guides taking advantage of cheap winter housing and fix-it projects around the boat house and that lone kayaker that thinks 31 degrees and snowing is perfect on-water training weather.<\/p>\n

You’ll Find The Ultimate MacGyvers
\n<\/b>Often rafting towns are isolated from city services\u2014like mechanics, plumbers or gear stores\u2014leaving the locals to use their own ingenuity on life’s fix-it problems. From repairing your broken sandal strap to getting a 30-foot trailer axel back in order, chances are “Dale down the street” has a way to get you rolling again. The creativity of these solutions is often ingenious, but we can’t promise their longevity…or safety for that matter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Everyone’s A Badass
\n<\/strong>Don’t expect traditional gender or age roles here. Women row boats and run outfitting businesses. Want to meet a ten-year-old that can shred the local surf wave harder than you? Just head to the local spot sometime after\u00a03:30\u00a0on any weekday. And that old guy in line for coffee has already run 15 miles this morning.<\/p>\n

There Are<\/strong> No Secrets
\n<\/strong>Wrap a fully loaded gear boat on the Snowhole rock? Lose your dog? Make a hero move and dump truck your paddle boat in the play wave? Your rafting town will know about it before you\u2019re even off the river. Be on your best behavior in a river town because gossip travels faster than a shuttle bus heading back upstream toward the bars at the end of the day. This sounds like a bummer but in truth it\u2019s not so bad because it means\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Someone<\/strong>\u2019s Always Got Your Back
\n<\/strong>Despite any company rivalry or secret-sharing, at their core, river communities are families. If you\u2019re in a pinch, be it on the river or the side of the road, a river town means someone\u2019s always got your back and will be there to throw you a rope, give you a lift or help you get back on your feet.<\/p>\n
