Grizzly River Run Gets Warming Huts
Do you sometimes skip your favorite water rides because you don’t want to get wet? Well, I have some good news for you! At Disney California Adventure, the attraction Grizzly River Run has installed body warmers near the ride. Humphrey the Bear Warming Huts are now available to anyone for just $5, which is paid via credit card. Of course, Disney had to theme the dryers after the ride. That’s what they do best!
Warming Hut Rules
Five people are allowed in a dryer at one time and lasts for 3.5 minutes.
They are also handicap accessible.
Grizzly River Run
Grizzly River Run at Disney California Adventure Park is a thrilling whitewater raft adventure that takes you roaring down a California river in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
Buckle up for an exciting free-floating river ride up, down and through Grizzly Peak. The Grizzly River Rafting Company has converted a former mining operation into a one-stop destination for thrill-seeking rafters—and you’re invited to join in the excitement.
Meander along a tranquil path brimming with towering pine trees and pass a series of age-old cliffs that reveal the fossilized remains of some of California’s Ice Age inhabitants. In the distance, a massive muzzle and snout that is the mountain’s summit comes into view: Grizzly Peak. Proceed over a rocky bridge flanked by a rushing waterfall and make your way inside a timber structure—the debarkation point for your wild river ride.
Adventure Awaits!
Hop inside a circular 8-person raft and drift along a lazy river, passing the rusty remnants of an old mining company. Rumble along a 275-foot-long conveyor belt as you begin your gradual ascent up the mountain, taking in scenic views of the surrounding area. At the top, splash down amid a foaming spring and then brace yourself for a treacherous descent down Grizzly River.
Bob up and down and gently spin almost out of control amid the raging current. Sail through a craggy mountain cavern and weave back and forth inside a howling mine shaft, as waves curl up and over the side of the raft. Forge ahead through a wooden sluice channel built by miners a century ago, and be engulfed by a massive water eruption as you plummet down what seems like a perilous bedrock slope. Ease your way back to base camp, but not before navigating waters overrun with gushing geysers.
Do you have what it takes to brave the mountain?
