Meet at our office in the Gallatin Canyon (63960 Gallatin Road) where our office staff will check you in for your trip and our guides will get you outfitted with all the equipment needed. We provide wetsuits, booties, and splash tops all free of charge! Show up with a bathing suit to wear under the wetsuit, or synthetic layers that can dry quick if wetsuits are not required. You will use your car like your locker and leave all dry clothes and valuables in your car, and the office has a place for your car keys. We will shuttle you a short drive upstream where you will get our safety talk to outline the dos and don't of rafting. Then hit the water!

Begin the day by floating the narrow, winding upper Gallatin as it flows through mountain meadows and pine forests. Stop for a delicious river-side lunch. Then the lower section takes you through the wildest water on the Gallatin! You’ll begin with smaller rapids that progress in size until you are dropped into the Mad Mile, featuring the longest stretch of whitewater in the region and the legendary House Rock Rapid! You will return to our Gallatin office between 3:00-4:00PM, both exhilarated and relaxed from this full day river experience.

The Gallatin River Canyon is the perfect setting for getting your whitewater fix and relaxing in nature as a group. Your guide will share stories and information about the area with the group as you make your way down river. Keep your eyes open for wildlife sightings along the way. A keen observer might spot bald eagles, marmots, or even a moose! The scenery, featured in the movie “A River Runs Through It,” is one of the highlights of Montana.

We will pick you up at the end of the trip, for a short 5-10 minute drive back to our office and dry clothes! Our professional photographers will get shots of you throughout the trip. Trip photos, apparel, snacks and souvenirs are available for purchase right at the office.
