Upper Klamath testimonials

"We greatly enjoyed the raft trip, and can't possibly express to you how impressed we were with Willy. He was thoughtful, incredibly knowledgable - both about rafting and about the history, wildlife, etc, of the area, and inspired the kind of confidence that made all of us want to go rafting with him again. We're already talking about the Klamath next Summer, but only if we can do it with Willy". Best.

-- Mark, Cheryl and Morgan

Anne, We had so much fun with you and Don. You are great people who run a good business. Everyone had a great time. We look forward to staying in touch and seeing the picutres from the trip. We're currently at the Portland Airport on our way home to Colorado."

Upper Klamath River overview

1. Your Upper Klamath River trip begins when our friendly staff picks you up in our shuttle vehicle. Click here for a map of our rendezvous locations.
2. We offer you an excellent continental breakfast en route to the Upper Klamath River launch site at Spring Island just below John C. Boyle Dam.
3. At the launch site the crew helps you get fitted into necessary equipment needed to make your rafting experience an enjoyable and safe one.
4. Next we have an onshore safety briefing, then practise paddling techniques on the water.
5. We fine tune our whitewater rafting skills as we journey through the rapids of the first 5 miles of the 17 mile float trip.
6. Then the real fun begins with a Class 4+ rapid, Caldera. Continuous whitewater fun follows for the next 7 miles. Experience Branding Iron, Satan's Gate, Hells Corner, Dragons Tooth and over 35 more rapids to excite you.
7. Survivors have the best deli lunch offered on the Upper Klamath River. Maybe that's why guides from other companies stop by our lunch table to chat.
8. After lunch we run the final 5 miles of our Upper Klamath River trip. It's a time to relax, to learn some local history from your knowledgeable guide, and maybe even jump in the river and float in your lifejacket (PFD).
