My wife and I just got back from a weekend in Wisconsin. The weather wasn't the greatest, but we went rafting down the Wolf on Sunday anyway. Lesson #1: If planning a weekend rafting trip to Wisconsin in June, wait until the last minute to reserve your room in case the weather sucks.
Since my wife was a first timer, we tried a shorter (2-3 hours, and supposedly easier) run (Herb's County M to Wild Wolf Inn, off route 55). Unfortunately, the river level was low, causing us to get stuck on rocks quite a bit. /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif Lesson #2: Call to check river level before reserving your room.
Now to the story: There were 3 other rafts launched at the same time as ours. Fortunately, we were much faster going down the river and got way ahead and out of sight of the other rafts. I had to get out of the raft quite frequently to get us off the rocks, leaving my swimsuit quite wet and cold. And it was an older suit, so it was falling down and giving my wife a show (she was seated in the back). Since there was nobody around, I thought "what the heck", and took it off. /infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif
It was great. I was probably nude for at least 60% of the trip. This section of the river seemed to be ideal for nude rafting (I know some other sections of the river run close to route 55, but this one doesn't). Once we passed the 2 boy scout bridges, there was nothing but trees, river, sky, and wildlife. I stayed nude until we reached the County "M" bridge.
If you want to try this yourself, weekdays and Sundays should be the least crowded and you could wait around 15 minutes or more at the launch point to allow any other rafts to get far enough ahead... And you will have a section of the river just to yourself. You may see a fisherman or 2 /infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif , but they would have to go a long way to complain.
Maybe next time I can talk the wife into joining me... /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
