Snake River White Water; Jackson, WY

Our first white water trip on the Flat Head River in Glacier left us both wanting more! The Snake River Canyon, here in Jackson gave us the opportunity to experience some bigger water.

The flathead was predominately class 2's, with a couple of "3's" thrown in to make things exciting. The Snake River, on the other hand, was mostly class 3's, with a couple of 2's thrown in to get your heart rate back down ;) Our kind of water, we had a BLAST!

The on-shore photog got a great series of us on the biggest rapid on the trip, may have been a class "4", don't quite remember. Laura and I are on the left side of the boat!

Approaching "Big Kahuna" Rapid


Here we go!


IMPACT!


Just a little bit wet!


Today, we are headed over to Teton village. They have a Tram/ski-lift package on special for $15, all day use. We are going to take the mountain bikes over, bomb down the ski hill a few times, take the tram up to 10,000 ft for lunch and finish up by bombing down the hill a couple more times! It's too bad you can't take your bikes all the way up to 10,000 and ride down from there, that would be quite a ride :)

We still want to get over to Alpine and take the horses out again to try and get a look at the moose and her calf. We extended our stay one day, through Tuesday to try to get a glimpse of her..........

stay tuned..........

I would kill to be in that raft. You are so lucky you were able to do that. They have a three day trip on the Snake River in Idaho that we have wanted to try for a long time. We would love it.

When you live in the Denver area there is some good rafting especially early season on the Arkansas. if you like the thrill take it through the Royal Gorge.
