What To Expect

White Salmon River

Rafting the White Salmon River is one of the best-kept recreation secrets of the Pacific Northwest! You may have seen photos or video of Husum Falls, the 10-foot commercially-run waterfall, or heard stories of incredible adrenaline-pumping whitewater rafting and we could not agree more. The White Salmon River is located only 90 minutes from the Portland/Vancouver area so that you can experience some of the most thrilling and sporty III-IV rapids in the area. The glaciers of Mt. Adams combined with the immense aquifers in the area, keep the White Salmon bubbling all summer long. The river cuts its way through one of the most beautiful, constricted, and heavily forested gorges in the area. The water is gin-clear, the weather is fabulous and rapids are big and numerous; making the White Salmon River one of the most exciting half-day or full-day river rafting trips in the west!

We would do this trip again! Ted, our guide, was very experienced and made sure our group had an awesome and safe day! We were able to step out of our comfort zone at our choice and this was one of the best parts of our vacation! Whether you are experienced or just adventurous, this trip offers something for everyone!

This was an amazing adventure on the White Salmon river with good friends! As a newbie, I had concerns about safety and lots of questions. The River Drifters and Wes, our guide provided reassurance and expert instruction to kept everyone safe in our group. I am very grateful that my friends challenged me to get out of my comfort zone. I will defiantly return next year!!!
