Warning! Whitewater activity in Alaska is Cold!  But it is FUN if you are prepared for it. When whitewater rafting in Alaska, a drysuit or thick wetsuit IS A MUST!  (Along with a helmet and lifejacket, of coarse.)  When rafting these whitewater rivers, be sure to wear these items. The best commercial companies have them (even drysuits).  Be sure your outfitter does!  Even a short swim in Alaska's rivers can ruin your day if you're not ready for it. Hypothermia is a real KILLER!
