The tour runs on one of the biggest and
unique rivers in Southern Alberta, the South Sasketchewan.
This prairie river runs from north of Grassy Lake to just
east of Empress where it meets the Red Deer River. The
South Saskachewan is so diverse with its high breath-taking
clay banks and rocky bottom. The shoreline contains
hoodoos, coal seams, and dinosaur fossils. It remains
virtually untouched in the way the First Nations people saw
it centuries ago. There is such an incredible
abundance of wild life and fish that people are amazed.
You will be travelling on a twelve passenger Boice jet boat that has been
custom built for us. It is the best in technology and
performance and stands next to none with low decibel
emissions tests. Made of solid aluminum, it meets all
white water and river challenges. WE are proud to be
associated with the Boice family of Medford, Oregon and
their 50 years of jet boat building and excellence. This
spring Riverbend Adventures purchased a custom made five
passenger jet boat from Outlaw Marine in Red Deer Alberta,
one of the top jet boat builders in Western Canada. We
are hoping to be able to run all summer when the river is
lower, with this sporty, lighter aluminum boat. |
