Whitewater Rafting Small Boat Adventure Snake River Jackson Hole

This is the "High Adventure" option for those who want the wettest, wildest ride in Jackson Hole. Lewis & Clark (est. 1971) runs the absolute smallest guided rafts on the Snake River. More importantly, we are the only outfitter offering a pure "paddle-only" experience. We stripped away the heavy oar-frames found on other tours to give you a lighter, faster, and more responsive boat. In our 14-foot rafts, you sit right on the waterline. Every wave looks bigger and hits harder. It is an aggressive, team-focused run where you provide the horsepower to smash through legendary rapids like Big Kahuna and Lunch Counter. With a maximum of 8 guests, there is nowhere to hide from the splash. This is the closest you can get to the whitewater without actually swimming. The trip covers 8 miles of Class II and III whitewater featuring rapids such as "Lunch Counter" and "Big Kahuna." Round-trip time is approximately 3.5 hours. For an exclusive experience, call our office to book a private boat.
