The Wind is a classic Northwest trip with big, difficult rapids set in a beautiful canyon. Negotiating the numerous rapids requires precise teamwork and strong paddling skills. The first 2 miles of the trip contains steep, nearly continuous rapids as the river drops through the steepest commercially rafted rapids in the Northwest. With little or no margin for error, this section culminates in the huge waves and holes at Ram's Horn. Below Ram's Horn the river continues virtually nonstop until Climax where boaters will finally get a break.
Because of the demanding nature of the trip, only physically fit adults with previous Class IV rafting experience are eligible to participate on this trip. Paddlers may have to pass a fitness test before being accepted on this trip. We reserve the right to turn away individuals at the meeting area if we feel they are not suitable for this strenuous trip. | |

Boaters continuing on the full day trip take a short snack break before tackling the big, powerful drops on the second half of the trip like The Flume and Beyond Limits Falls. The final test is a demanding portage around the incredible Shipherd's Falls which can include a 30 ft. cliff jump to get back to the river.
