Itinerary

  1. We are pretty confident that this 8-mile stretch of whitewater has the highest concentration of laughter in the state of Wyoming. With class II and III rapids such as The Lunch counter and The Big Kahuna, and even an underwater waterfall aptly named Champagne, this river will thrill and delight you. And with inspiring limestone cliffs, hills of Lodge pole Pine, and the mountain peak horizon of the Grey’s National Forest, the scenery will surely impress you. This is the moment in your vacation that you’ll write home to grandma about—that is, if she’s not already in the boat with you!

  • 5Amazing Whitewater Rafting

    Our experience whitewater reacting was amazing. Our guide Sandy was the best. He made us all feel so comfortable. He gave us all the rules and made our ride so much fun. We also had the worst weather, cold, rain, thunder, and lightning. However, we saw 5 eagles, osprey, 2 beavers, and 2 otters. We had a wonderful time. Thank you Sandy!

  • 4Excellent experience on the water in Jackson

    Lots of fun, perfect for our age and physical ability. all staff were very friendly and kind. The bus driver (a military veteran whose name i can't recall) was a pleasure

  • 5Rafting

    It was a very enjoyable trip. The rapids were rated 2&3. There was not as much drop in the rapids as expected. Good way to see the river, but not a difficult trip. People in the front definitely get wet, not as bad in the back of the raft. Nice family trip.
