Merging into the Seti River as we were starting our rafting adventure
Walking bridges exist across the river to allow access to the other side. Some of these looked sturdier than others.
Area where we stopped to eat lunch, while other rafters and kayakers head down river
Looking back in the direction we had come.
The calm before the storm. The first day of rafting on the way to the Seti
River Camp did not include as many rapids as the rafting we did leaving the Camp.
Nevertheless, we got soaked.

Grounds of the Seti River Camp, which is located, naturally, along the Seti River. The tents are permanent structures.

Inside my tent. We were allowed to bring a few personal items plus the green bag provided by Overseas Adventure Travel.
Our suitcases stayed with the van that transported us to the Seti River.

We saw many large spiders in webs while we were staying in this area.
A few of us hiked up to the top of the valley to get views like this of the Seti River and also to visit a couple of villages located above.
