Rafting Trips / Upper Klamath River - Class IV+
 

rick guiding on the upper klamath riverThis wild, isolated section of the Klamath River slices through the rugged Cascade Mountains of southern Oregon and northern California. With unparalleled wilderness beauty and over 30 major rapids, "Hell's Corner Gorge" is one of the west's finest Class 4 river trips.

The first morning we warm up with a few miles of Class 3 rapids...a taste of what lies downstream. Approaching the gorge the river disappears from the horizon, dropping into "Caldera"...a boulder-choked chute of solid whitewater. We barely have time to celebrate our run as the river turns to the west, exploding into miles of continuous action. Just above "Hell's Corner" the river narrows and steepens, creating a volcanic maze of whitewater. After a day of paddling through walls of water, our riverside camp is the perfect place to relax and watch for hawks, herons, and eagles as they glide through the canyon.

Testimonial -
"We just finished your two day trip on the Upper Klamath river and had the best time. We are looking forward to planning another vacation with you next year and will bring more people. The meals were great and I couldn't believe you even compost all the produce cuttings. Thank you for all your care." - Rob & Lena
