Corvallis Waldorf School

The American River
Recreation and Tourism
Flowing from the Sierras through El Dorado and Placer Counties into Folsom Dam and Sacramento, the three forks of the American River have helped shape America’s history. The South Fork, site of California’s first gold discovery, today provides the most popular whitewater rafting west of the Rockies with its many fun and forgiving rapids, scenic setting, and reliable summer flows. The North and Middle Forks also offer whitewater excitement, fishing, swimming, and other recreation. In 2012, we worked with the Coloma-Lotus Chamber of Commerce and graphic designer Amy Dasso Williams of the Madison Ave. Collective to completely redesign the website to focus more directly on whitewater rafting and recreational tourism.
