HOT NEWS! We are now launching all of our White Salmon River rafting trips from our private launch site, 2.1 miles upstream of the standard public launch site! With our private upstream put-in, we exclusively offer the longest stretch of class III-IV whitewater run by any company on the river. The additional 2.1 miles of river offer more exciting rapids, more incredible canyon scenery, and an optional cliff-jump back into the river. In addition, this trip provides both a private launch-site and private take-out, freeing our guests from the hassle of crowds at the standard commercial launch site. This exclusive Wet Planet trip with private put-in and private take-out simply can't be matched! This trip IS a different trip ... See for yourself, and check out some photos that you will only see on 'Wet Planet's exclusive trip on the White Salmon River'.
White Salmon River Rafting: Designated for protection under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, a White Salmon River rafting trip is a breathtaking combination of whitewater and scenery. Fed by natural springs flowing from the glaciers of Mt. Adams, the White Salmon River cascades through narrow, cliff lined basalt canyons before heading out into the warm sunshine of a forested valley. Throughout the amazing White Salmon white water rafting trip, rafters are treated to continuous class III - IV rapids that challenge even our most adventurous whitewater rafting guests. In between the rapids, you will have a chance to view lava formed rock walls, float alongside the rafts in crystal clear pools, and watch for wildlife in forests that are only accessible from the river. This incredible whitewater rafting trip is highlighted by a vertical plunge over the legendary 10' high Husum Falls (dependent on water levels).
If you are interested in challening class V whitewater, be sure to check out another breath-taking trip that only Wet Planet runs: the Farmlands of the White Salmon River.
