OUR ADVENTURES

WHITEWATER RAFTING

"What a fantastic trip. Thank you for such a fabulous experience. We both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and you guys were so much a part of it all. We hope to come back another time if you'll have us. Many thanks again. Cheers"

We offer all inclusive, fully guided whitewater experiences on the Snake River through Hells Canyon, the Salmon River, and the Grande Ronde River. We run our 'Learn-to-Row' Adventure on the Salmon and Grande Ronde Rivers only.

The Snake River through Hells Canyon

The Snake River through Hells Canyon: Experience exhillerating whitewater in the deepest, most rugged canyon in North America! This experience is fully-guided. In Hells Canyon you will have the opportunity to ride in a raft with an expert guide behind the oars or try your hand in one of our Inflatable Kayaks. Our guest love the Duckies. During a day on "The River you can: swim, hike, catch a fish, play a game or simply lounge about in camp with your friends and family. All while our guides/gourmet chefs (yes, they do it all!) prepare delicios meals and do the dishes. Sleep under the stars on one of our comfy self inflating pads and wake to the smell of fresh brewed coffee and the sun-rising up the canyon walls...life doesn't get any better than this!

The Salmon River

The Salmon River: This experience is fully-guided with the additional Learn-to-Row option. During a fully-guided experience, you have the option of riding on a 15 foot guide raft, paddling as a member of a paddle raft team, or paddling 1 of our inflatable kayaks (a "ducky"). For our Row-Your-Own experience, you learn to row one of our 12 foot rafts, with one of our guides always close at hand. No matter what the adventure, we fully-cater all of our Salmon trips. In camp, enjoy the beautiful white-sandy beaches of the Salmon while catching up with family or friends, completely undistracted by cell phones and computers. We guarantee this will be a trip full of memories to last a lifetime! Sample trip itinerary

Our trips range in length from 3 to 6 days. Our adventures are great for the entire family. We will spend our days running the exhilarating rapids, gazing at the surrounding beauty of the canyons, and spotting bighorn sheep, deer, bald eagles and many other types of wildlife. This is also a great time to visit with our many new and interesting friends or reconnect with ourselves, family, or old friends. We will provide all necessary equipment, food, and guidance to make life easy for you on the river. Our first-class expeditions are fun, relaxing, educational, and above all memorable vacations where people of all ages find themselves bonding with self, family, and the natural world.

Your Hells Canyon and Grande Ronde adventures will begin in beautiful Joseph, OR the day before your scheduled launch date. The Salmon river adventures all meet in Clarkston, WA. We will meet you the evening before your trip to answer any last minute questions and to provide you with your gear bags. We will depart Joseph, in our van, the morning of your trip and head to the boat ramp to meet your guides and be introduced to your river home for the next few days. We will have lunch on the river the first and last days of your trip.
