Traversing a river demonstrates yet another way humans have mastered our surroundings, much like flying an airplane or swimming through peanut butter. Assert your might with today's Groupon to Beaver Brook Outfitters in Glens Falls. Choose from the following options:
• For $13, you get a single kayak rental and return shuttle (a $25 value).
• For $18, you get a Lazy River Tubing Adventure for two (up to a $36 value).
• For $79, you get a whitewater rafting adventure for two on the Hudson River (up to a $160 value).
Beaver Brook Outfitters opens the window to the great outdoors by leading expeditions and adventures in the heart of the beautiful Adirondacks. Explore the scenic Upper Hudson River with a single kayak rental, which plants paddlers on a private launching point before they float from Thurman Station to 1000 Acres Ranch on a five-mile trip. Take in the views of surrounding flora and fauna before a complimentary shuttle whisks you back to civilization. The tubing trip allows two people to relax in harmony during a leisurely 2.5 mile float down the Hudson. Lasting approximately two hours, or the time the average American spends watching cat videos per week, this tranquil trip provides serene surroundings and calming conditions for bonding or splash fights.
The whitewater rafting trips provide thrills and adventure in beautiful Adirondack Park. Grab a trusted companion or smiley pre-friend and cascade through 17 miles of Class III-IV+ rapids including ragers such as The Narrows and Givney's Rift. Rafters can practice synchronized swimming routines in the Dunk Flats, or jump off Elephant Rock before eating a riverside lunch and climbing back in the raft to pilot through even more rapids. The day concludes with a hot dinner at the raft base. This trip includes a raft, wetsuit, booties, a helmet, personal flotation device, lunch, dinner, transportation, and an NYS-licensed guide.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Karate Belts
Karate champions know that supreme mastery of the lethal art is dictated by meditation, nonviolence, and self-control. Because of this irony, all humans start as karate masters and become depreciably poorer at karate with each lesson they take. Here's a guide to punching and kicking your way through the different color-coordinated levels of karate:
- White Belt: Meant to blend seamlessly into your karategi (Japanese for combat pajamas), the white belt symbolizes that you are worried people will laugh if they find out your underdeveloped stomach muscles cannot hold up pants.
- Yellow Belt: The yellow belt is a portmanteau, indicating that you have mastered the first two karate skills—yelling and bellowing.
- Green Belt: This indicates that you have learned how to crush your opponent—so long as it's an aluminum can being rinsed and sorted for the recycling! Well done, Eco-Warrior!
- Purple Belt: You have mastered the deadly art of your own imagination. Dazzle and confuse the enemy with crude pastel drawings in which both your heads share a single body.
- Black Belt: The pupil has become the master, or, to put it in Western terms, the student has beaten up the teacher.
