Since 1983 we have been offering whitewater river rafting adventures on the beautiful Skykomish River in the North Central Cascades, just west of Steven's Pass. While river rafting class III-V rapids on the Main Skykomish has always been our specialty, we also offer a host of other water-oriented programs: from youth summer camps and inflatable kayaking, to corporate team building adventures and specialized rescue courses. 

We will, of course, continue to offer a variety of whitewater rescue classes and technical rope rescue classes. These classes are custom designed for firefighters, S.A.R. teams, raft guides, private boaters, and individuals who work near or around rivers.

For over twenty five-years we have been dedicated to safety in outdoor recreation and we're only getting better—come and check us out this season.
