Top River Rafting Companies Suggest "Shortcations" so the Time-Stressed Can Recharge Batteries

SALT LAKE CITY - May 15, 2024 - PRLog -- Western River Expeditions and its division Moab Adventure Center have fine-tuned their "shortcations" that offer most -- if not all -- of the time-out benefits of longer escapes.

"Recent findings show that 40 percent of working Americans take only 4.4 vacation days a year," reflected Brandon Lake, CMO and co-owner. "With this in mind, we have 'shortcation' river rafting trips that even for a day or two will help set your batteries on high-speed recharge."

Following are adventures of only three or fewer nights available for the upcoming 2024 rafting season.
