White Water Rafting the Killer Kern River

The Killer Kern. That’s what they call it. The Kern River has claimed over 280 lives since 1968 and another 8 this summer alone. After learning that less than 2% of accidents occur on commercial rafting trips and being reassured that we would not only be rafting with Ed, but he would take along his best guides for the trip, I began to feel better about the idea.
