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!

The bus drivers, George, was amazing. He was smart, personable, and funny. He provided information and history on the local area and wildlife. He took the time to stop and let us take pictures at a really nice scenic overlook of the snake river. We enjoyed the drive to and from just as much as we enjoyed the rafting! Our guide, Brian, was fun, safety conscious, and personable. Our group had four adults - two of which we’re in their 60s. The staff made sure that they were confident, comfortable, and safe during this adventure. We recommend this company and will be back!

We went late afternoon on July 17th. Water was flowing around 6,500 cubic feet/sec. It was our second year with Dave Hansen and we got the same outstanding guide this year as last - shout out to Bryce! We had 6 adults in the raft instead of 8 and had ample power (with Bryce) to run all the rapids with excellent results. Big Kahuna and Lunch Counter rapids were a big thrill. Super fun trip & great service from pick up to drop off. Bryce is a real pro!
