At Noah’s Wilderness Adventures, the river is more than just a destination—it’s a lifelong passion. For over 50 years, our family has dedicated itself to sharing the magic of Southern Oregon’s Wild and Scenic Rogue River and the fast paced rapids of the Upper Klamath with our community of paddlers. But as any river lover knows, the lure of the adventure continues.
To help our guests expand their bucket lists and explore even more of the West’s legendary waterways, Noah’s Wilderness Adventures is proud to partner with Tributary Whitewater Tours.
Sharing a deep commitment to exceptional guest service, top-tier guide professionalism, and unforgettable experiences, this partnership allows us to confidently recommend next-level river trips to our community. If you have already checked the Rogue off your list and are wondering where to head next, look no further than Tributary’s spectacular multi-day expeditions through Hells Canyon on the Snake River.
Rafting North America’s Deepest River Gorge
While many naturally think of the Grand Canyon for massive scale, the Snake River actually carves its way through the deepest river gorge in North America. Bordering Oregon and Idaho, Hells Canyon features dramatic, high-desert vistas where the surrounding mountain peaks tower nearly 8,000 feet above the river’s edge.
Tributary Whitewater’s Snake River Rafting Trips offer an incredible 4-day wilderness getaway that seamlessly blends thrilling Class III whitewater with pristine, off-the-grid relaxation. It is a world-renowned destination that belongs on every outdoor enthusiast’s radar.
Why a Snake River Trip with Tributary Belongs on Your Bucket List:
- The Whitewater: The Wild and Scenic section of the Snake River features big-volume, roller-coaster rapids that deliver plenty of splashes and excitement, yet remain perfectly approachable for families and multi-generational groups (ages 7 to 97!).
- Specialty Itineraries: Just as Noah’s is celebrated for custom wilderness menus, Tributary elevates the backcountry experience with distinct specialty trips. Guests can book their signature Gourmet in the Wild restaurant partnership with each evening meal featuring a course prepared and curated by Flying Fish Company who features sustainable seafood from the Pacific Northwest.
- Cast, Catch, and Conquer: Those looking for a world-class fishing experience, Tributary runs dedicated 4-Day Fishing, Hunting, and Rafting Trips targeting bass, trout, and ancient sturgeon, with late-season chukar hunting opportunities starting in September.
- Rich History & Wildlife: Between running rapids, guests can take side hikes to breathtaking vistas like Suicide Point, explore 11,000 years of human history through Native American petroglyphs, and spot bighorn sheep, bald eagles, and river otters along the banks.
