When’s the last time you went white water rafting, if ever? Here's an opportunity to give it a try. It’s fun, safe, and an adrenaline rush.

This run is not an entirely easy float trip of Class I’s & II’s, is somewhat challenging and demanding, and has about 10 Class III’s/IV’s rapids, and one Class V waterfall.

From Seattle, the river is approx. a 4.5 hour drive.

After rafting, we can decide if we want to go to dinner, and check out any trails or attractions over the weekend.

We’ll meet at the drop off site, and I’ll e-mail/post more directions & info.

All the gear is included for approx $65.00, and you only need to bring your bathing suit to wear under the provided wetsuit.

If you missed this trip, we will have more upcoming rafting trips in the future.


Here's to white water!

    •  This was a wonderful adventure! I loved the whole rafting trip, whether it was the class III/IV ride or the V diving. It was such a unique experience. The dinner we had afterward was delicious. Thanks Sheri! I look forward to our next rafting trip.

       It as a Blast! ......Beautiful scenery on the river and on the trip as well. White water rafting is great fun.....a real rush. The river guides took good care of us and made it special. 
    •  Wow! That was very fun and exciting! The scenery was magnificent with both Mt. Adams and Mt. Hood appearing to be within reach. The river is glacier fed from Mt. Adams and runs fast and cold (the guides told us it is about 40 F) We definitely all got wet and some of us even found our way into the river through a couple of the rapids. Even one of our guides fell in on the class V Houston Falls! There are some great restaurants and hikes around here to experience in the future. Thank you to everyone that made the long drive down for this great adventure. 
    •  Very exciting and challenging experience! Great fun, even when me, our rafting guide, another guide and three other rafters fell in going over the Class V 10 foot waterfall. I'd do it all over again. Can't wait for the next one. Eating out at three new restaurants with friends was great.
