About

An awesome combo of rafting and kayaking, and the most adventure the Salmon River offers! Run Class IV rapids in a raft then switch to inflatable kayaks for the Class III section. A challenging adventure you won’t forget.

Our experienced guides give your group a detailed safety speech and a kayak orientation. Jump in the boats, follow paddle command and navigate the rafts as team through class IV rapids. Downstream you encounter spectacular Shotgun Rapid, followed by two miles of whitewater and the historic Sunbeam Dam (IV) run.

After the Class IV excitement, the guest then formularize themselves with our super stabile inflatable kayaks, practicing kayaking in the deep Elk Creek boat ramp eddy. After each member of the group is comfortable with the kayaks we head out for more adventure. Piece of Cake and Warm Springs Gorge Rapids round out the series of thrilling runs and lead to the class II section of water, which comprise the middle section of the river. All the while the guest is helping hone your kayaking skills. After all the excitement we prepare a delicious outdoor meal served up at our private riverside lunch camp, we continue downstream through a leisurely stretch of river, allowing time for relaxation. This is an challenging epic adventure you will not forget.
