Summer Sensations!

Drifting in the cool water while the air temperatures hover in the 90 degree range; Paddling with family and friends in the Rocket Boat; Cloudless deep blue skies; The smell of sweet, ripe blackberries drifting across the river; Water gun fights with friendly and enemy pirates; Lunch served daily at the river's edge; The greatest selection of skipping rocks you have ever seen; Snowy white egrets flying over blue-green water; Mountains full of evergreen and deciduous trees; The chattering call of the belted kingfisher; Riding the bull through whitewater rapids. These are a few of the end of summer sensations that everyone is enjoying on the river these days. Come on out to play!

Rogue River Rafting Trips

Rogue River Raft Trip

It was a terrific day out on the water and so much fun to ride the front of the raft through the rapids with the singing quartet! Who needs iTunes when you can listen to riverTunes?! What a wonderful trip. We look forward to our next raft trip with you and the songs you sing!

Rogue Rafting in Late Spring

Rogue River Rafting in late spring is spectacular! The water levels are higher, the flow is faster and yet time seems to stand still. Eagles and osprey are feeding fledglings, deer are coaxing the fawns from the willows, and the otter are nursing and fishing for their pups. With all of the spring flowers still in bloom, there is magic in the air.
