Your Oregon Rafting experience starts here. OregonRafting.org (which I simply refer to as "Oregon Rafting"), can be a useful tool in planning your next whitewater rafting trip. Although the name suggests that we are solely focused on Oregon rafting trips, you will find that this is not the case and we have information for rafting trips outside of Oregon.
The two most popular tools on Oregon Rafting are Trip Reports and the River Descriptions. You can make this website better. Add your trip report or river description by emailing it (and any photos) to info@OregonRafting.org. You can also become a fan of Oregon Rafting on Facebook or subscribe to our blog, the "Riverness". At the very least, you can help by simply telling your friends about Oregon Rafting.
While browsing through Oregon Rafting, you'll find information on rivers for California rafting, Washington rafting, Idaho rafting, and a few other places that may spark your interest.
The Oregon Rafting Philosophy
Oregon Rafting starts with you and a drive to the put in. Oregon Rafting ends at the take-out as you load up your gear. Oregon Rafting is your trip, from start to finish, and the memories each trip brings. At Oregon Rafting, the focuses are the rivers, the people, and the stories that intertwine the two.
Oregon Rafting is a work in progress. The paddling community of commercial and private boaters is an extremely wonderful group to be a part of. I hope that you will join in the enthusiasm for rivers and help make this site, not only a good source of information, but a great place to visit and swap stories, pictures, and ideas.
