Rafting Outfitters

Hells Canyon has 3 access points – the North Entrance at Lewiston/Clarkston, the Middle Entrance at Pittsburgh Landing and the South Entrance at Hells Canyon Dam/Hells Canyon Creek Visitor Center. You travel on the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway when you come into the south entrance of Hells Canyon. Hells Canyon Adventures offers jet boat tours, 1 & 2 day rafting trips with jet boat return, fishing charters, and shuttle services in the Wild Section of the Snake River in Hells Canyon. From Hells Canyon Dam to Kirkwood is the Wild Section of Hells Canyon. The Wild Section includes all the major white water rapids, all the deepest points both on the Oregon and Idaho side. You can only access this section of Hells Canyon by boat, by plane, or by foot. That makes what we do very important, we provide access for the public. Hells Canyon Adventures provides a variety of tours so that people of all ages and abilities can experience Hells Canyon.

Since 1969, so over 50 years, Orange Torpedo Trips have been providing whitewater rafting adventures on the Rogue River, Salmon River, Klamath River, North Umpqua River, and Owyhee Rivers of Oregon, Idaho and California!

We have guided our family of adventurous clients on unique and thrilling active river-running vacations to some of the world’s most beautiful waterways. With paddle in hand or traveling on foot, our guests gain a sense of personal accomplishment in pushing past their own fears or limitations. These experiences can challenge you physically, build confidence, encourage collegiality and introspection, build respect for nature, create lasting bonds with families and friends, and inspire memories to last a lifetime.

While time on the river builds individual skill, strength and confidence – the collegiality and easy-going hospitality of our guides makes time on and off the river relaxing and fun. OTT lets you escape the boundaries of your everyday. These trips require moments of full concentration which in turn, creates opportunities to re-focus. The sense of escape is encompassing and ultimately relaxing. At the end of a river adventure, our guests are invariably proud of their accomplishments, grateful for having built or deepened relationships, and more centered and aware of their own purpose and capability. So grab your friends and family for a river adventure where you come away relaxed and changed, trips book fast so don’t miss your chance for a trip you will remember the rest of your life.

Welcome to Gary & Barbs Wapiti World,

We are the longest standing original dory/drift boat/raft outfitters in Riggins. Our specialty is small group whitewater, fishing, and chukar hunts with our Weimaraner's. While Barb does behind the scene work to help me on the river chasing whitewater, fish and birds - I dive deeper into the intricacies of the canyon for continued learning to better inform guests about our area. Over 40 plus years of experience has generated many stories, enough material to write two books about the Lower Salmon. But... it is you, our potential guest, that is the reason for enabling us to continue to help you build your own story, never to be forgotten, and often life changing. It is true: "you have to go to know."
