Celebrate BC Rivers Day! Join us on the Columbia River on an easy 3-4 hour paddle from Athalmer to Radium and experience the beauty of the Columbia Valley from a unique perspective.
BC Rivers Day coincides with World Rivers Day when millions of people in more than 70 countries create events to increase public awareness and encourage the improved stewardship of rivers around the world. This year marks the 40th anniversary of BC Rivers Day and according to Mark Angelo, its river-wise founder:
“rivers are the arteries of our planet; they are lifelines in the truest sense.”
