An epic outdoor adventure for some novice mountain men and woman on a beautiful Saturday in Southern Oregon! It's no secret the last year has been stressful for all of us, particularly for me and some fellow engineering students in the thick of our studies at Oregon Tech; adapting to distance learning, masks upon masks, the fires, a professor strike, the daunting task of writing the cannon on geoengineering ethics, and being assigned responsibility to reverse climate change. We needed a break! Noah's Rafting gave us exactly that! A whole day later and I am grinning ear to ear thinking about our 13+ miles of rapids, rafting, and sunshine on the Upper Klamath River. Introductory training in safety and maritime fundamentals and we were quickly paddling into our first whitewater. I cannot say enough about our guide Captain Sweet! He is incredibly skilled, charismatic, and easily the kind of guy you have no qualms spending a day on the river learning from, leaning on, and getting to know. We conquered several level 3 and 4 obstacles including the famous 4+ Caldera stretch! My friends and I feel accomplished, rejuvenated, and better connected to the planet we are training to protect. We cannot wait to return to the raft and pursue our next adventure! Thank you Noah's Rafting and Captain Brandon Sweet for providing us with such an incredible day! See you again soon!!

6. Morning Rogue River Hellgate Canyon Half-Day Trip
Overall Ratings
4.9 based on 8 reviews
The morning half-day trip on the Rogue River through Hellgate Canyon is our most scenic half-day trip. The forbidding walls of Hellgate Canyon rise out of the water at the rivers edge marking a dramatic point of transition into the whitewater downstream. As we float through the canyon osprey and eagles fly over head as the search the river for fish. The morning trip flows through two distinct gorges and concludes with two of the best class II rapids on the day section of the Rogue River so if you want to get out on the river before the heat really sets in join us for our scenic morning trip.
Inclusions: All river equipment, Transportation from and back to our store, Choice of Inflatable kayaks, paddle rafts, or oared rafts

Being in the gloriously beautiful Owyhee River Canyon wilderness was a once-in-a lifetime opportunity. Dealing with challenging low-water river flows, the OTT crew was magnificent. Skillful and expert scouting and kayaking help make our experience safe and fantastically fun. We also had a brand-new menu to enjoy - and having the chef along was definitely a plus. Exceptional place and people made the trip a success.

We booked an outing with Noah’s to introduce our youngest son to rafting. We were sold on the fact that we could kayak alongside the raft. While one or two of us stayed in the raft, the others worked their own kayaks with some guidance from Ryan. It was a great blend of relaxation and adventure. We will be back for the bigger rapids next time.

This was a great intro to riding the rapids. GF wants to do more extreme ones....I think I'm ok with little ones. Guides were great. Not much I can think to improve on. Food options nearby for breakfast are terrible so eat before.

We took three three tours with America's Hub. In fact, when they had to reschedule a coastal tour they provided us with a private downtown tour. All three tours - half day downtown Portland, half day Multnomah Falls and Columbia River Gorge, and full day coastal tour far exceeded our expectations. Phil was our tour guide for the two half day tours and Carrie was our tour guide for the full day coastal tour - they were both very knowledgeable, and offered lots of great tips on restaurants, and scenic hot spots, I would highly recommend all three of these tours,
