So, she was surfing the web and came across this. I am so glad she did! It took almost 3 hours to get there, but the scenery from Vale to the dam was well worth it. At first, I didn't want to spend that much money for a boat ride...but, I now think it is worth every penny and more! I had such a great time. Dusty was our guide (what do you call them? Are they Captains?) He was not only a great guide, he just seems like a great person. He was nice, polite, and did one hell of a job on the river! I have great memories with my bestie, and some really great pictures also. We didn't see any exciting animals, but that's ok. Still a great trip! I will go to Yellowstone for wild bears! :)

Their operation was smooth, they were ready to start early, they had great attention to details and our experience. The price was more than reasonable for this fun time. It is early in the season and the water is high. We experienced three 4s and several 3s. This was our first white water rafting trip and I wasn't sure what to expect. Stephen took care of us, knew the history of the area, and talked a lot. If I visit again, I'd use SRC again.

The road gets pretty windy once you hit Copperfield, but the views of Hells Canyon and Snake River are worth it! There are quite a few pull-outs to stop and take pics. We also passed numerous campground and picnic options. We enjoyed driving over the dam and taking pictures from both sides. Such beautiful views! If you follow the road to the end, passed the dam about 0.5 mile, you come across the visitors center. It was closed when we arrived, but we did enjoy watching the rafters and kayakers from the back deck. Would highly recommend a visit!

Hells Canyon Dam sits at the end of the road. Literally. It's the last of a series of dams that pen…read moreup the Snake River as it rolls along a steep, deep crevasse that separates Oregon and Idaho. To access the dam, you pick up Hells Canyon Road at Copperfield (if coming from the Oregon side) and snake your way up along the Hells Canyon Reservoir for about half an hour. It's a scenic drive that offers plenty of places to pull off and swim, and quite a few trailheads for hikes up into the Idaho side of the canyon. The route takes you along the base of some very steep cliffs and overhangs, and you can tell by the dents in the blacktop that there are often rockfalls along here. My wife was white-knuckling it during most of the ride out. The dam itself is nothing too spectacular, but it does sit in a very scenic spot on the river. Once you cross the dam, the road ends in a boat launch, and this is where the adventure begins. Here you can put in for kayaking, rafting and drift-boat floats down the canyon. Fishing abounds. The dam itself has a little visitor's center with historical photographs and a couple of Idaho Power employees who can answer questions. We were able to get some good info on road quality for our forthcoming drive up the forest service roads into the Wallowas. Super helpful! If you're not floating or fishing or otherwise using the recreation side of the river, there's not a whole lot to do here other than learn about the dam and take in some pretty scenic views from the canyon floor. It's almost more about the views on the drive in. And you'll be seeing them again on the drive out, as there's nowhere to go from here but back the way you came.

Hands down, 11 out of 10, one of the most fantastic white water experiences we've ever had. I've…read morebeen white water rafting for nearly 30 years with a variety of different rafting companies, however, this was my first experience white water kayaking and it was next level. Not only was the scenery some of the most spectacular we've ever seen, but the level of service, professionalism, knowledge and attentiveness were truly second to none. When they talk about the shadow effect in businesses, it's clear that someone as wonderful as Jaclyn is at the helm. Her care, attention to detail, responsiveness and all around loveliness spreads out to her amazing team and allows them to show up as their fullest selves and truly live into their superpowers. The guides Sebastian, Emmy and Jack were so wonderful and as a result of Sebastian's guidance, and my son's and Emmy's encouragement;), I was able to kayak my first class 4 rapid (something which gave me endless mom points with my son:)) and live to tell the story;-). For anyone looking for a top notch operation and an extraordinary adventure, you need to look no further...

Captain Eric had years of experience driving that boat so we felt very safe. We saw deer, big horn sheep, eagles and a sturgeon.

If you want a wild jet boat ride, jump on Bucks boat ;) Mackay Bar is truly a hidden gem in Idaho. All of my friends and family are texting me that we forever ruined their expectation of a wedding.
