Hells Canyon Raft, Idaho’s Whitewater Rafting Company
“unparalleled service, attention to detail”
The Armacost Family has been running the best river trips in Hells Canyon for over 31 years. From our home and office on the Canyon Rim we invite you to join us in one of the truly most magical places in Idaho. Our unparalleled service, attention to detail, high end equipment and veteran guides make us the leaders. Every turn of the river has a story, which we are happy to tell making your trip more meaningful and memorable. Our guides are friendly, and fun not to mention professional in every aspect of their work. They lead you to many sights in Hells Canyon, taking you to see ancient rock art and old homesteader cabins, lead amazing hikes, and help you catch the “big one.”
“the best equipment, and experienced river guides”
We send a cargo boat ahead each day to set up a safari style camp. Instead of spending time setting up your tent, you can be hiking, relaxing or teaching your child to fish. Simply put we are the leaders in full service, the best equipment, and experienced river guides. We have operated solely in the Hells Canyon Region Since 1982. Let us show you a real Hells Canyon Raft experience.
Come with us and discover yourself in a place where time stands still. A place so amazing that just being there changes the way you see things.
We hope to see you on the river,
Kurt & Heidi Armacost
