These photos were shot on the morning of the third day of the August 29 – 31 Oregon Rogue River rafting & kayaking trip. Folks were enjoying a brief stop on the beach at Halfmoon along side the beautiful Rogue River.

Itching to get some exercise and eat healthy for your next vacation? Oregon Rogue River rafting, kayaking and hiking trips offer vacationers the perfect combo: tons ‘o fun and a chance to get some real exercise without really thinking about it. Recreation is basic to the purpose of a vacation. Recreation means “to restore to life, refreshment by recreating oneself.” To recreate is to refresh ourselves, to heal, to recharge our batteries and reorient ourselves to a more balanced, successful life.
We don’t realize how many things we can do to recharge our batteries, help us resolve our feelings, help us get in touch with our vision and goals, and provide much needed perspective. A conscious vacation brings more life, love and meaning into our lives. It is a little life sabbatical that leaves us ready to re-enter our daily lives with fresh perspective and new energy. So seize the moment and call us at 1-800-214-0579 to book a healthy, fun vacation you’ve been dreaming of. Oregon Rogue River rafting, kayaking and hiking trips. This is one Oregon vacation you will walk away from revitalized and renewed. Whitewater kayaker tries to flip kayak in “Mary’s Pot Hole” on Oregon’s Rogue River. This fun drop/hole is a blast to go over–either in a kayak or inner tube. Watch how the kayaker paddles towards the hole and drops into it…and finally ends up in quieter water. This is known as a pool-and-drop river. In other words, you drop into a rapid and then ease out into calm water. Much of Oregon’s Rogue River is like this, making it incredibly fun to white water raft or kayak during the summer months.
When you book a whitewater rafting trip, you want your outfitter to offer the very best. And being the best means concentrating on the details of every trip. Whitewater Warehouse is one of these Rogue River outfitters that truly believes that the “devil is in the details.” Since folks come from all over the world to raft, kayak and hike with White Water Warehouse, the company wants to make sure that they experience “Oregon” in all the best ways. Before dinner each night, WWW offers a variety of Oregon foods to sample. Willamette Valley hazelnuts, southern Oregon artisan cheeses, Oregon wild Salmon and Steelhead–caught and smoked by our owner, and luscious Oregon/Washington wines are presented to our valued guests.  organic foods for rafting trips Even Whitewater Warehouse’s garlic, herbs, onions, tomatoes, cabbages, broccoli, cauliflower come straight out of the owner’s organic gardens! The rest of the vegetables and fruits are purchased through a local farmer…so the food is always all-Oregon, all the time. Interested in seeing this quality outfitter in action? Check out Whitewater Warehouse’s website. Or, call their friendly staff at 1-800-214-0579. They would love to talk to you about what makes them so different! Stair Creek waterfall on Oregon’s Rogue River is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Oregon. Its name comes from the watery journey it takes down rocky “stairs.” The stream cascades into the Rogue River from the south. It flows over nearly vertical rock walls to meet the river. Inspiration Point (where White Water Warehouse owner, Bob Meister, filmed the waterfall) overlooks this scenic spot from the river’s north bank. During the summer months the pool at the bottom of Stair Creek Falls is a likely place to find salmon refreshing themselves in its cool waters. Often during the dog days of summer, rafters and kayakers will stop to view the beautiful waterfall from the vantage point of looking up into the Falls–some even brave enough to take icey cold dips in Stair Creek’s surging waters. An expert lead guide for White Water Warehouse oars through the infamous Mule Creek Canyon area of southern Oregon’s Rogue River while a WWW guest paddles behind him in an inflatable kayak. White Water Warehouse owner, Bob Meister, shoots video and narrates the moves from high above the river while hiking on the Rogue River trail.
