Third Day Magic: The secret gem behind multi-day river trips.

There is an expression you hear often on the river amongst guides and whitewater enthusiasts. It’s call the “Third Day Magic”. Referring to overnight/ multi day river trips, this expression explains this special kind of bliss that happens after you’ve been on the river more than 48 hours. Because you see, there’s a lot of stop and go to get a rafting trip flowing correctly, from planning the trip, to food shopping, to packing, to running the shuttle, and loading up the gear boat and finally getting on the water the first day of a multiday river trip can be rather exhausting!
