How is gear stored for a white water rafting trip?

Question

I'm about to go on a white water rafting trip. We're spending three days rafting and will be camping for two nights. I was wondering how the gear is stored and if there's a good chance of it getting wet or lost.

Answer 1

usually there will be watwerproof containers tied into the rafts...I guess it depends on the rafting co.

Answer 2

Is this a commercial trip or a private one? The commercial trip will store and secure communal gear on the rafts in watertight bags. You will be offered watertight bags for your personal gear. Private trips will do the same except members will supply the bags. Find out what is suggested for gear and clothing. Commercial trips will supply PFDs and helmets. Private trips will require you to supply your own.
