High-Desert Landscapes & Awe-Inspiring Gorges
Join us on this remote and scenic river, where deep gorges reveal Oregon's Grand Canyon with a perfect blend of exciting whitewater, varied scenery, hiking, hot springs, and relaxation. The Owyhee River's whitewater is as diverse as the flora and fauna that adorns the remote canyon hillsides. Its close proximity to the Malheur Bird Refuge lends this trip to some of the most diverse birding. Raft through dramatic multi-colored canyons, where sheer rock faces, up to 1,000 feet high, tower above the river. Hike to remote hot springs, Pruitt's Castle, homestead cabins, the Chalk Basin, and take in views of Native American petroglyphs over 8,000 years old. Explore 65 miles of the pristine Owyhee Canyonlands on this early spring trip.
Please note that the itinerary and dates may slightly vary, depending on river and weather conditions, group abilities and permit requirements.
