About this activity
CHECK-IN & TRANSPORTATION:
This whitewater rafting trip requires check-in 30 minutes prior to launch time. The standard check-in location is at the Mad River office located at 1255 S HWY 89, just 2 miles south of town. Transportation from the Mad River boat house to the river and back is provided on every Mad River trip.
RAFT TRIP DETAILS:
This trip launches from West Table Boat Ramp in the Snake River Canyon and winds its way south toward Alpine, WY. You'll travel 8 river miles from start to finish. There are about 8 sets of rapids, ranging from class I and II to class III. Various river features will be encountered, such as Lunch counter and Big Kahuna rapids, Million Dollar Fishing Hole, Gauging Straights and Bailing Straights. Your whitewater rafting guide will share information on the history of the area as well as teach you about the local flora and fauna.
The Snake River Canyon is rich in geological history and your whitewater rafting guide will point out some of the features that make this canyon unique. You might see river otters, osprey and bald eagles on your trip. The lucky few might even catch a glimpse of a mountain goat, a mule deer, an elk or even a grizzly or black bear.
BOAT TYPE:
This trip features our standard size raft. This raft is an AIRE inflatable, self-bailing, 18'3" raft. It seats 16 people but we average 10 to 12 guests per boat. There are non-paddling and paddling positions in this raft

Great fun! Our guide, Fitz, was a wealth of information. We would do it again in a heartbeat.
We had a wonderful time on this rafting trip. Great group of people to participated. Wide variety of ages and abilities. Our guide, Ben, was outstanding. Helped make everyone feel comfortable and very expert at guiding and making things fun. Highly recommend!
We booked a month ahead of time on viator. We were concerned that this might cause a mess, due to using a third party, rather than booking directly with the service provider. We had NO issues. Everything worked out perfectly. When we arrived, the reservation was correct. The raft trip was great. The water levels were quite high, and the guide concentrated on safety.
