　　【Yuanyang Stream Rafting Precautions】

　　1. Participants with high blood pressure, heart disease, pregnant women, intoxicated individuals, children under 14, and elderly guests are not suitable for rafting and will not be allowed to participate.

　　2. Please do not bring sharp or bladed objects onto the raft to ensure personal and vessel safety. Do not use your hands or feet to brace against rocks during rafting to avoid injury.

　　3. It is advisable to bring a set of clean clothes to change into after disembarking, as well as a pair of plastic sandals or disposable straw shoes to wear on the raft. Sandals are recommended. Dress simply in quick-drying clothes, but avoid thin or light-colored clothing that may become revealing if wet.

　　

　　4. Do not bring valuables (such as mobile phones, cameras, or other electronic devices, jewelry, etc.), cash, or leather shoes on the raft. In case of capsizing or other accidents, rafting companies and insurance providers will not compensate for lost cash or items. If you must bring a camera, use a low-cost disposable model, wrap it in a plastic bag, open it on calm sections, and reseal it before rapids. Be prepared to lose it in the water. Glasses wearers should secure their glasses with a strap.

　　

　　5. When approaching rapids, follow staff instructions, remain still, hold the inner grip straps, tighten your feet, and lean toward the center of the raft. Maintain balance with the raft during fast currents. If sitting in the back, lean slightly backward. In tandem rafts, keep the boat balanced and parallel to the flow. Avoid playing or splashing in high-drop or fast-current sections.

　　

　　6. If the raft gets stuck, do not stand up abruptly. Stabilize the raft, find a solid foothold, then stand to avoid being swept away. If you drift into another channel and get stuck or stranded, exit the raft.

　　【Emergency Response During Rafting】

　　① What to do if the raft capsizes?

　　　　If you fall into the water due to a capsize, stay calm, hold your breath, avoid inhaling water, and right the raft. When reboarding, ensure balanced weight distribution—while one side climbs on, the other should hold it down. Retrieve any lost paddles promptly, or you’ll have to paddle manually in calmer sections.

　　② What to do in fast currents?

　　　　The most thrilling part of rafting is navigating rapids. Pay attention to arrows and signs along the way to anticipate drop zones. On calmer, open stretches, enjoy the scenery, but when facing rapids, teamwork and technique are essential—the essence of rafting lies here. Hold the inner grip straps, lean slightly back if sitting in the rear, and keep the raft balanced and parallel to the current. Keep limbs and head inside the raft to avoid hitting rocks.

　　③ What if another raft collides with yours?

　　　　Try to face the collision head-on (side impacts are more likely to capsize), and hold the ropes tightly. After impact, the raft will align parallel to the shore—stay inside to avoid pinching. Keep a safe distance from other rafts to prevent injury. Reminder: mentally prepare for cold water. Repeated drenching will eventually chill you, but ginger soup is available onshore—you won’t need to bring extra warming items.
