Would recommend a trip like this to all who were interested in a river adventure. Leave your cell phones in the car and get connected to family, friends and nature. Well done, OARS and our guide team – thank you. Chris W. Green River Rafting through the Gates of Lodore Guest View Trip Details The perfect balance between feeling like you were on an adventure and being taken care of, particularly by the guides during the trip. Gabrielle Stevenson Main Salmon River Rafting Guest View Trip Details Where do I even begin – everything was amazing. The food was incredible. The guides were very knowledgeable and we always felt super safe in their hands. They always went above and beyond expectations in every regard.
