Upper Klamath Day Trips Testimonials

  • "Craig was a most awesome guide! He hit the rapids in the sweet spots and created a most exhilarating adventure for our family. Craig was very professional and personable. We were provided with a lovely lunch as well. We will be talking about this trip for years to come. We also have to mention Dave our driver, who provided us with safe travels and entertainment along the way. Momentum is the way to go!!!!"
  • "My husband and I took a trip out west. We planned on traveling down the coast of Oregon. We heard about Momentum Whitewater Rafting online and decided to give it a try. After talking to a customer rep. we decided to sign up for an entire days trip. It was awesome and we were so glad we did! My husband an I are both in are late 60's and had never done this before! Tyler was so knowledgeable and instructed us on how to handle ourselves as well as the raft. I was a bit nervous, but once we got going thoroughly enjoyed the trip! Tyler informed us about the river and the habitat of the fish and animals there. He even had a wonderful picnic lunch for all of us to enjoy on the beach around midday. I was very impressed with the care for the environment. Everything we brought in, we took out. It was a great trip and one we wouldn't hesitate to do again. Nice part also was the company picks you right up at your hotel and drops you back there at the end of the day. No worries about finding where to go! Thanks Tyler for a super trip! "

  • "This was the 4th or 5th trip on the Upper Klamath with Momentum, and all have been fantastic. Jane, our guide, was excellent, keeping us safe but at the same time hitting all the big holes and waves to our enjoyment. Everyone in the company was excellent-this is a must do trip if you are ever in the area!!"
  • "A big thank you to the staff at Momentum for such a fun trip down the Upper Klamath yesterday! I can't think of a better way to have spent my birthday. :) Chad was our raft guide, and both Mike and I were impressed with his knowledge of the area. Discussing Captain Jack and the Modoc War was refreshing, although I was unclear on some details, forgetting several points. Chad knew the basics, but upon arriving home I couldn't help but do some googling and refresh my history. Please pass the following on to him as well so we can ALL get our facts right for future reference. Thanks so much! :) Once again, thanks Chad for such a fun afternoon! :)"
  • "We had a wonderful time on the Upper Klamath River. Anthony guided us expertly through some great white-water, we had a superb breakfast and lunch, and really enjoyed the experience! We will be back for another trip with Momentum!"
  • "We had the fantastic family experience of rafting the Upper Klamath with the Momentum Company and cannot believe how truly skilled, experienced, and absolutely wonderful the experience was for all 16 of us. We've rafted quite a few times in the past and this was better than all the others put together. Our guides were so fun and knowledgeable. Impossible to top this!"
  • "My husband and I went white-water rafting for the first time. We did the full day rafting on the Klamath. Momenturm made it a great experience! From the time they picked us up at our hotel in Ashland until we returned we were in capable hands. We were a little nervous at first, but with Jane's guidance and great skill we were soon comfortable and totally enjoying the river. Food was great also."
  • "Thank you for the amazing day down the Upper Klamath!! The scenery was beautiful, the animals were a treat, the rapids were exhilarating, the food was fabulous, and you were an amazing guide!! I felt completely safe with you as our guide. I would definitely take another Momentum trip again. -Terri "
  • "Simon, Now that we are back in the UK, I wanted to say thank you for making our one-day trip down the Upper Klamath a highlight of our stay in the USA. My wife, our 14-year-old son and I, all enjoyed it immensely. Firstly, it's a great river with dramatic sections, stunning scenery and lots of wildlife; there is also a good flow even in August: I still find it hard to believe that in the calm sections between the rapids the river visibly slopes downhill. Secondly your organisation is very professional, but also personal, with pre-trip confirmatory e-mails and a pickup from our campsite that was bang on time. But most importantly, more than an experienced guide and an excellent raft-Captain, your knowledge of the area and enthusiasm for the experience was infectious and added hugely to the overall enjoyment. This was, as billed, an exhilarating wilderness experience not a theme park ride which we will all remember for many years to come. Thanks again to you and all at Momentum. And thanks for finding such good companion rafters too. Best wishes, John"
  • "Thank you for providing the employees of Jacksonville Inn with a wonderful and exciting day on the Upper Klamath River. The skills of the guides made each and every one of us comfortable on the river, and the food was definitely beyond our expectations. All in all, Momentum Expeditions is definitely a first-class operation and we will not hesitate to recommend your service to our guests. "
  • "Dear Tyler, We had an incredible trip and are already talking about the next river to run. Appreciate all our guidance and laughter down the river. We had such a good time. Thanks again for putting together that little birthday cake for my husband, super thoughtful you and the Momentum team."
  • "We’ve owned a home on the Klamath River for 12 years now. It’s beautiful to watch “Old Man River” go by. But we see people boating the Klamath in rafts and kayaks, and we’ve always wanted to do that ourselves. So when our lawyer/mediator brother suggested he’d pay for a rafting trip on the Upper Klamath, to celebrate his wife's birthday, we jumped on board. There were just four of us on this raft, captained by our unbelievably strong thirty year old guide, Tyler. The long, intense rapids were ominous class threes and fours. Tyler was propped upright, leaning against a 2 by 6 in the back of the raft, wielding two massive oars, and we four terrified neophytes were hunkered down with paddles, two on each side of the boat, in front of him. When Tyler said “paddle,” it meant paddle like hell, because we were approaching or right in the middle of the most violently churning water we’ve ever seen. A lot of our paddling yielded nothing but air, since the boat was forced way up out of the water half the time during a class 4 rapid. But Tyler kept us safe and moving through the water. He had the most muscular upper body we’ve ever seen on a compact frame, and he needed every bit of his strength to push us through those rapids. If we had been able to relax and look around, the scenery would have been breathtaking. But we couldn’t really enjoy it at the time, as we were always tensing for the next rapid or trying to rest leg and foot muscles that we had brutally wedged into the boat to keep from being thrown from the raft into the teaming surf. Three of us actually did fall back into the raft at least once."
