What to wear
It can get cold on the river, so we recommend dressing in layers, such as with a wicking-fabric inner layer and a rain jacket. Bring waders if you have them - you will be in a boat and not wading, but typically the temps in the morning will be cool and higher in the afternoon. If you don’t have waders - shorts and Keen-style sandals are good, with light pants over for the morning.
