Hi!

This will be my first summer living in Calgary and I'm super eager to do some river floating, as I've never done anything of the kind before.

I plan to keep it VERY chill (easy floating with a beer, not so much rafting) and stick to slower parts, at least as much as the river allows.

Would inflatable rafts be okay for this? Can I use an inflatable tube, or would that not be sturdy/heavy-duty enough? Are paddles necessary?

Bonus: if anyone has any suggestions for *affordable* raft/etc options, would be eternally grateful :)

EDIT: Totally heard re: no beers! Thanks for the heads up!!
