Description

The 8 mile whitewater stretch through the Snake River Canyon takes you through mix of calm sections where you'll be able to take in the scenery and wildlife, and exciting rapids. On this smaller 8 man raft your paddling skills will be put to the test as your guide leads you into the big waves of Kahuna and Lunch Counter, so be prepared to paddle hard and have a blast getting soaked! Guests 16 and over will be charged a $3 Bridger Teton National Forest User fee at check in.

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!

Our favorite experience in Jackson Hole!

Honestly one of the best experiences we’ve ever done! We booked on a whim and the entire trip was an absolute blast from start to finish. Our guide, Eagan, was awesome—super knowledgeable, fun, and made sure we felt safe. If you're on the fence about booking this, just do it. You won't regret it!

Experience the river

Riding the river on a raft was a hit with our teenage grandchildren! The staff made us feel safe and taught us what we needed to know to get through the roughest part of the rapids. Definitely a highlight of our trip!

Snake River

Lots of fun. A perfect level of excitement for folks our age (70). Ben was an excellent guide, and Gene, the bus driver, is a very special gentleman
