Recently, I booked my first salmon fishing trip since moving to Washington state. I'd had two…read morebookings with others guides, who flaked out on me. Then, I came across Chrome Rangers NW Fishing adventures. Cory Griffin, the owner/Captain, is quite the humble, compassionate, and very professional man. He's got an amazing sense of sense of humor which keeps everyone at ease - smiling & laughing. Cory displays prompt, effective, communication; not just in booking, but at each step of the fishing adventure. And an adventure it was on our 10/21/2025 trip. I had my Coho limit by 8am, the rest of the boat limited out by 10am! The Chrome Rangers' NW boat and fishing gear are first-rate, including top line fishing gear, tackle, bait, and knowledge with a Garmin fish & depth finder. Cory shows extensive knowledge as a fishing guide - to include areas, species, and current regulations. Chrome Rangers NW always put the needs of the clients first! Doing whatever it takes to make every trip a success and help each client to catch their limit and make the experience extremely memorable. I will definitely be re-booking with Cory (Chrome Rangers NW). Only next time, I'll be bringing my son, son-in-law, and grandson! Again... Thank You Cory!

This hike happened by happenstance…read more A friend and I were supposed to go up to Horseshoe Prairie (http://www.yelp.com/biz/horseshoe-prairie-nordic-ski-area-pendleton) for snowshoeing, but unfortunately, I let my friend drive and he was a little too confident about his car's snowy-road-handling ability. After spinning tires a time or two, we canned our fun-in-the-snow plans, turned around, and slid down the hill to civilization. While picking up chocolates at Petite Noirs (http://www.yelp.com/biz/petits-noirs-milton-freewater), the owner mentioned a nearby hike. To not make the day a total loss, we were all ears, and went for it. Just off of main street in Milton Freewater, you take the turn off for Harris Park (as you're driving south out of town, it'll be the left BEFORE you take the hill up and out of town). You then drive about 10 miles up a canyon carved by the South Fork of the Walla Walla River. This canyon is part of the Blue Mountains, and it's amazing to see how quickly the landscape changes from the drabby flatness of Milton-Freewater to the alpine-y beauty of the Blues & Walla Walla river. Once you're in the area of the park, keep going until you approach the trailhead for the South Fork Walla Walla River trail. Here there are quite a few parking spots, a couple of restrooms and river bubbles within earshot. You are clearly outside of civilization and within an honest to goodness country landscape. The deep valley is beautiful and the trail looks inviting. For the most part the trail parallels the river. Sometimes it sidetracks and goes up the side of the valley wall, but the river is always within view. The trail is well-kept and nice (other than a few boggy/muddy spots). We went for about 2.5 miles on the trail before calling it a day. We enjoyed sightings of elk at one spot (we later saw herds of deer, turkey, and even a scooting coyote during our dusk drive out). I'm so glad I made it here. I can definitely see myself coming back to dip myself within the magic waters (à la Field of Dreams) and fly fishing the stream (à la A River Runs Through It). I've also heard that you can ride your mountain bike here too---I'd also be down for that! South Fork of the Walla Walla Trail. I will see you again---very, very soon.

This was a great hike with my dog. Very turn their was a beautiful view of the Walla walla River…read more Trail was in decent condition. Plenty of parking at the trailhead.
