Classic Whitewater Rafting Trip

Overview
The highlight of your vacation! This a 17-foot self-bailing raft that provides a fun splashy ride while providing enough stability to handle the Snakes Class bigger rapids with ease, and allowing you to feel safe while you enjoy the experience. You'll paddle through the legendary Snake River Rapids, including Lunch Counter, Big Kahuna, Champagne and Ropes. Rafts launch at West Table and take out at Sheep Gulch in the Snake River Canyon. It's 8 miles of Class II and III whitewater interspersed with calm stretches, even some opportunities to swim. Trips take 3 1/2 to 4 hours round-trip from our office at 180 Powderhorn Ln in Jackson. Whitewater rafting with Lewis & Clark is the genuine interactive outdoor adventure you came to Jackson Hole to experience. Most of our customers are first-timers and it's suitable for ages 6+. If you're looking for the max in adventure check out Lewis & Clark's small boat, smallest raft on the Snake. Private rafts are available, call to book.

Snake River Canyon
Please check in to our office at 180 Powderhorn Lane in Jackson 1/2 hour before your trip time. After checking in you will have access to restrooms and dressing rooms to prepare for your trip. Once your bus departs our office, it takes about 35 minutes to reach the "put-in" at West Table Creek Ramp on the Snake River. There are dressing rooms and pit toilets at the ramp. Our guides will be at the ramp to meet you and help you get into your gear, including life jackets and free, optional splash jackets. After your ramp orientation, you will launch and begin your 8-mile trip on the river. These 8 miles can take anywhere from just under an hour at high water to two hours very late in the season, depending on flows. Once at the take-out you walk up to your bus which will be parked near the restrooms and dressing rooms. There, you can retrieve dry clothing and change before riding back to Jackson. The bus ride home takes about 45 minutes.

We did the classic white water rafting trip while on vacation at Jackson Hole. This was our boys first time doing white water and we had a blast! We didn't want it to end! Our youngest son even dived off the boat during the "mellow mile" to swim a little. We chose Lewis and Clark from trip advisor because of its rating and great pricing then when we got there the staff was very friendly and helpful. Our guide on the boat was Jess. He was awesome! He was knowledgeable and alot of fun and got us through some great white water! We had a great time and will go with Lewis and Clark again!

We had an amazing trip down the Snake river with our friends and their teenagers. It was just the right amount of rapids and scenic float, followed by a delicious cookout by the river. The staff, including our guide Stephan were all fantastic! I would definitely book with them again.

We did the classic whitewater trip this week during our vacation in the Jackson Hole area. There are many river raft companies to chose from and we did our research. We picked Lewis and Clark because their office reservationists were knowledgeable, friendly, pricing was competitive and one of the owners were actually onsite at that time. It wasn’t the huge rafting operation which was a positive. Of our group of five adults (29, 30, 60, 63 & 65) all but one was ready for the whitewater thrills. Our guide Luke, helped make her comfortable and she had a good time. He was extremely knowledgeable, confident, passionate and kept us laughing. Five stars for Luke!!!!! These folks care about the experience you receive. Bravo Lewis and Clark!!
