A crowd runs through it: Rafting the rowdy Deschutes
There's a place where you can camp quietly by the riverside, listening to the peaceful flow and reconnecting with times long forgotten. It's the place to enjoy simple things and think deep thoughts about life, love and loss. It's the sort of place Norman Maclean would have written about.
This is not one of those places.
At least not during rafting season.
Welcome to Maupin. A tiny outdoor-adventure boomtown in Central Oregon that gets flooded every summer — and into autumn — with visitors who want to experience the legendary Deschutes River by raft or rod.
