What To Expect

Dave Hansen Whitewater and Scenic River Trips

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!

We took our 6 and 9 year old girls on their first ever whitewater rafting trip on the Snake River with guide Sarah. We had a great time and she engaged the girls and got them excited even before we got on the river. She promised our girls she would keep them safe and they would not go in the river unless they wanted to swim at a safe time and she kept that promise, although the rest of the folks on the boat went swimming she protected the kids so I give her a lot of credit. She was knowledgeable, social, and made sure everyone had fun. She was a positive role model for the girls and we were happy to send the afternoon with Sarah and Dave Hansen rafting.
