When your adventures demand both durability and performance, the Badger Packraft from Go North Rafts delivers. Designed with a balance of strength, agility, and packability, the Badger is the perfect companion for hunters and anglers who need a reliable raft in remote, unpredictable environments.
Built for Hunting & Fishing Access
The Badger is made for those who go beyond the easy spots. Packrafts are widely used for remote fishing and backcountry hunting because they can be carried deep into wilderness terrain and deployed when needed.
With the Badger, that advantage becomes even more powerful:
Access untouched rivers and alpine lakes where fish see little pressure
Cross waterways during hunts or float out with gear after long treks
Carry essential equipment while staying lightweight and mobile
Its compact, packable design makes it easy to hike in, inflate quickly, and get on the water fast—exactly what you need for efficient backcountry missions.
Durable Construction for Real Conditions
The Badger is built to handle the environments hunters and anglers actually face. It features:
210D TPU-coated nylon tubes for lightweight strength
840D TPU floor for serious abrasion resistance on rocks and rough terrain
A full floor design that adds protection and durability under load
This combination gives the Badger the toughness needed for shallow rivers, rocky banks, and repeated use in rugged environments—where lesser gear would fail.
Agile Performance on Water
True to its name, the Badger is quick, responsive, and confident in moving water. It’s designed to:
Navigate currents and light whitewater with ease
Stay maneuverable in tight river sections
Glide efficiently across calm lakes when fishing or scouting
Its agile design makes it just as capable on a remote river as it is on a quiet backcountry lake, giving you flexibility no matter where your trip takes you.
Feature-Driven Comfort & Control
Go North Rafts builds their rafts with real-world usability in mind, and the Badger is no exception. Standard features include:
Inflatable seat and backrest for comfort on longer trips
Thigh straps for added control in moving water
Spacious interior for gear, fishing equipment, or extra layers
These features give you both comfort and control, whether you’re casting lines or navigating technical water.
The Ultimate Lightweight Workhorse
The Badger Packraft is the perfect blend of durability, agility, and packability. It’s built for:
Hunters needing reliable water access deep in the backcountry
Anglers chasing remote, untouched fisheries
Adventurers who want a raft that performs everywhere
The Badger isn’t just a packraft—it’s a dependable tool for pushing further, carrying more, and exploring water others can’t reach.
