There may be some snow outside my window this morning and the rivers are low in Colorado, but elsewhere it's not too late to go rafting on many rivers. Rafting America says you can watch the bald eagles alongside the banks while rafting down the Skagit River in Washington December through February, when the water is calm. If you want lots of action, consider heading to Chile, where it's summer in December.

The BEST time to see Bald Eagles on the Skagit is late December to mid-January. On occasion you may view 500+ in the stretch of river between Marblemount, WA, and Rockport, WA. Surprisingly, the weather is just as likely to be calm, clear or slightly overcast (which is the best climate to see eagles because they are less likely to be soaring far above you) and pleasant, as wintry and unbearable.
