1859‘s braintrust, the Maxes and the Johnsons, packed up their kids and headed south for a rafting trip on the Wild and Scenic Rogue River. Below is a gallery of their trip, as well as some additional photos by excellent photographer Jason Mitchell and outdoorsman extraordinaire Bob Woodward.

Our intrepid editor and amateur videographer, Kevin Max, also shot a great video documenting the trip. Watch it here.
