NEW Luxurious Eldorado
Upper Pitt River Lodge Cottages
 Located on The Upper Pitt River
affiliated with Upstream Adventures Inc.

All Inclusive, All Year Round.

THE ONLY EXCITING JET SLED FISHING AND LODGING AVAILABLE ON THE UPPER PITT RIVER, All Year Round.   5km from the North End of Pitt Lake.  Travel by JET SLED is by far the most exciting and the best way to really experience, explore and cover a lot of river. The jet sled means of transport is that TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANTAGE that maximizes a fishers opportunity to get into some astronomical fish.  
The Upper Pitt River is a powerful force in itself requiring jet sled power if you want to catch fish.  We use rafts only during low water levels.  

The jet sled allows ease of transport from run to run.  We can move you to a new location if water is too deep to wade or unsuitable for fishing.  We disembark the jet sled for an exhilarating walk and wade.  When we finish fishing a run we hop in the sled and we're off to the next run.  Travel by jet sled is the most intimate way to experience the Upper Pitt River.   As highly skilled jet sled pilots we virtually glide above water.  Transport by jet sled allows us to find fish in optimum locations.  We can cover the river from beginning to end and back again.  We maximize coverage of the entire river for the very best fishing opportunities.

Our jet sled pilots are certified by Todd Scharf.  
Jet sled pilots must apprentice, possess navigational talent, stamina and pass extensive, rigorous jet sled operation training by Todd Scharf before taking out any of our clients. Our jet sleds are professionally customized and maintained to efficiently run the force of the Upper Pitt River.  We guarantee safe and enjoyable jet sled transport.  We have never had to cancel fishing due to water and weather conditions.  

Our guides have rescued many untrained jet boat operators from the jowls of the Upper Pitt River.  Our trained jet sled pilots have an impeccable reputation and continue to run The Upper Pitt River unscathed.  

"We know about boats.  We've never known anyone who can 'walk on water' with a boat."

ELDORADO

      Gaily bedight,
      A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
      Had journeyed long,
      Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.

      But he grew old -
      This knight so bold -
And o'er his heart a shadow
      Fell as he found
      No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.

      And, as his strength
      Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow -
      "Shadow," said he,
      "Where can it be -
This land of Eldorado?"

      "Over the Mountains
       Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
       Ride, boldly ride,"
       The shade replied, -
"If you seek for Eldorado!"

Edgar Allan Poe
