There is much history here ranging from the American Indians, settlers, European explorers, immigrants, the lifestyle and hardships endured and more here at the museum. There are many stories you can read about and information on periods during the Gorge's history. The Skamania County historical society collect, preserve and display all sorts of tools, trinkets and more from the time period all related to the Gorge and all involved. There are many generous donors as noted on many of the displays which is cool. In the yard, there are old vehicles and construction equipment of the early days showing how supplies and timber were moved. They are worn and rusted but adds to its historical significance. The museum is about 3 floors, the 2nd floor is small, but packed with information about the nature around the gorge. There are theaters that show short features of the environment about the gorge. Depending on how deep your fascination for this goes, you could spend about 2 hours here a bit more if you read and examine all the displays. This museum is a perfect field trip for a school or parents looking to educate their youngsters about the history of the area. Even then, if you enjoy Pacific Northwest history, definitely add this to your list of museums to visit.

Wet Planet Rafting and Kayaking - Beginner kayaking class on the Klickitat River.

Wet Planet Rafting and Kayaking

There are some days that feel less like a vacation and more like you accidentally wandered into an…read moreaction movie directed by a sugar fueled mountain man, and Wet Planet in White Salmon was exactly that kind of glorious madness. Four of us rolled in on a perfect sunny day, the kind where the sky looks so blue it feels suspicious, like somebody turned the saturation too high. Right away the crew greeted us like old friends who owed them money. Everybody was laughing, cracking jokes, getting us geared up, teaching us how not to immediately perish in the river. Confidence inspiring, honestly. Then came the bus ride down to the river, packed with excitement, nervous laughter, and two groups of Boy Scouts who apparently had been training for a Broadway musical in the woods. These kids were singing songs, hyping each other up, chanting like tiny warrior poets preparing for battle. By the time we got off the bus I felt like we were either going rafting or marching into medieval combat. And then there was Marcus. Sweet merciful Neptune, this man was born for whitewater. The guy had spent seven years guiding in Colorado doing extreme rafting and had enough wild stories to fill three campfires and a History Channel special. One minute he was talking about brutal rapids, the next he was casually mentioning adventures in Japan like this was all perfectly normal human behavior. Meanwhile I'm over here trying not to lose a sandal. The river itself was absolute chaos in the best possible way. At one point we straight up rammed another boat like two pirate ships fighting over treasure. Our raft launched sideways into a wall of waves and half the crew disappeared into the water face first. I came up sputtering like an old lawn mower while everybody screamed and laughed like maniacs. Somewhere in the madness Marcus was calmly steering us through the carnage with the confidence of a man who has absolutely seen worse. Halfway through the trip we stopped near this insane waterfall pouring down dripping cliffs that looked like something out of Jurassic Park. Then the instructors started jumping off the bridge into the water because apparently these people have no fear and possibly extra bones. Naturally everybody followed because once adrenaline takes over, common sense quietly packs its bags and leaves the building. By the end of the day our entire crew was completely jazzed, soaked to the soul, exhausted, and grinning like fools. Wet Planet delivered one of the finest adventures I've had in years. Great guides, incredible scenery, nonstop laughs, and enough excitement to make you question your life insurance policy. Absolutely smashing experience. I'd recommend these guys to anybody who wants to laugh, scream, get launched into a river, and come home feeling gloriously alive.

We had such a fun experience and 10/10 would definitely recommend. I had friends visiting me in…read moreOregon so we did the full day. Some first timers for a few of them and they had a blast. This was my 2nd trip with Wet Planet on the White Salmon river and it did not disappoint! Derek was our raft guide and he was awesome. Super professional, conversational, knowledgable, funny and overall great vibe including Kirk and Denison who also kept it safe and fun! Even the photos came out great and for sure would do it again.

I've never had such an amazing Mother's Day! I ended up going on this rafting trip alone because we…read morecouldn't find a babysitter so my husband could come too, and I was honestly a little nervous at first. But from the moment I arrived, everyone made me feel so comfortable and welcome that those nerves disappeared immediately. Our guide, Peter, was absolutely amazing. He was extremely thorough with safety instructions and made sure everyone felt safe and confident throughout the trip, while still keeping everything fun and exciting. He had such a great way with people and really helped make the experience memorable. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and even the owner took the time to be kind and personable, which made the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about giving people a great experience. This trip made me want to come back before it was even over, and I'll definitely be returning this summer to hopefully try one of the more challenging rafting trips. Thank you all so much for giving me such a fun and unforgettable Mother's Day!

Spencer and his fellow guides made our day so enjoyable and fun. The camaraderie they have with each other and their guests makes this adventure, nice and easy. It was my first time doing it, and even though I wasn't nervous, Spencer did an incredible job guiding us over the rapids. I will definitely do this again with them and I highly recommend!
