Aims & Objectives

Our aims for the expedition were:

- Enjoy the world class whitewater we already know exists
- Explore the area in search of new rivers, paddling them where possible
- Work with the rafting companies to see if there is potential for expansion onto new sections of river
- Promote the area as an alternative Summer destination to the Himalaya's (through publishing river notes online, and through a series of talks upon our return in September)
