A river rafting launch on the Ganga at Haridwar. Two blue inflatable rafts and a white raft sit at a sandy, rocky bank beside fast green-grey water. About fifteen people in white shorts or trousers and red, orange or white life jackets and blue helmets stand, wade and paddle around the boats. One man in a pink shirt and another in a khaki shirt stand near the rafts, and a few people hold paddles at the boat edges. Large pale boulders line the foreground and a steep rocky riverbank rises behind.
