Alpacka Refuge WW/CF + Thigh Straps

The Whitewater Refuge is exactly what it sounds like- the ultralight Refuge is souped up with whitewater rigging and a full strength 84d floor. The final package comes in at right around 7lbs, which is lighter than a similar Classic that has no whitewater rigging.

This version has all of the same great features as the Refuge, but adds whitewater thigh straps, whitewater foot brace and a stronger floor, combining all of our best features into the lightest possible package for ultimate landscape traverses that include backcountry whitewater.

Skilled paddlers will find the Whitewater Refuge a joy to paddle in wilderness class III. It's also an outstanding little surf boat for the local play wave.
