see they're shooting a movie out there right now but it doesn't look like they are going to be open for business anytime in the near future. Surely they didn't just shut down did they? Moved locations further up river or something?

They are selling it from what I understand. I've heard rumors that they feel bad about the deaths and don't want it on their conscience anymore, but that could just be Watson watercooler talk.

One of the crazier days I've experienced happened on that river. Here's to you Tiki Tubing.

the drop off location is being totally redone. Bunch of tractor work,trees removed and other stuff. I'm thinking the old drop off location will now be the pickup location.

Hopefully they close. That operation has abused the river. It's full of trash year round. Old tubes hung up in trees, beer cans cover the river bed.

This is what the beaches look like on Monday afternoon after a weekend of tiki tubing.



That whole operation can eat a bag of dicks

Before anyone says that tiki tubing has a boat that picks up trash, here are some pictures that were taken in October. Every bend for about 4 miles looks like this. If you go north of the put in point the trash vanishes.

Looks like you're missing a good opportunity to be paid for recycling aluminum cans.

If you have 4-wheeler access I'll gladly pick them up for you. Email me at:
