• Rogue River Trail Hiking

  5 "Thanks so much for a fabulous trip. Fortunately, the skies cleared as promised and it was great hiking. Our guides made the trip! Glen and Trish were very proficient river rafters, chefs, and people wranglers. Staying at lodges with sheets and showers was better than glamping. And during a time of COVID the precautions were taken so we felt safe. This allowed us to enjoy the beauty of the river and forget about the 2020 craziness. Our group had a wonderful time and the respite. Thank you again!" - Jill Devenport 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Excellent! ***** We signed up for a 3 night / 4 days guided trip down the Rogue River with 3 other families. Everything top to bottom was wonderful, the river, the guides, the campsites, the food. We would highly recommend Momentum - they kept us safe, showed a tremendous spirit of adventure and knowledge of their craft. Truly memorable, very relaxing and worth every penny :)" - Nicholas Weigel 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "We went on this trip July 12-15, 2020, after having done my first trip with Momentum in August 2019, on the Idaho Salmon. This trip was was everything I expected from Momentum. The guides (Shana and Alyssa on the rafts and Glen on the gear raft) were amazing: competent, fun, worked hard every day to ensure a fantastic trip for us. The food was fantastic for normal circumstances, let alone considering it was made by the guides. The river itself is beautiful, good mix of rapids and calm. There was really only one set of rapids that we had to hike around while the guides took the rafts through, then another set of rapids where everyone had to be on the rafts and not in any kayaks. Otherwise, we were in the kayaks most of the time. Got dumped in rapids a few times (from the kayaks, not from the rafts), but I've learned to expect that on these trips and nothing felt scary. Overall, just a rad trip from start to finish!. I plan on doing more trips with Momentum, for certain. While this trip was was rad, I have to put a plug in for the Idaho Salmon trip, if you haven't done it. I think it's even better. Yes, it's more expensive. But it's two days longer (the Rogue felt like it was over too soon!) and the price includes a small plane hop from Boise airport, over the Sawtooth Mountains, to Salmon, Idaho...which, while technically not part of the "river" trip, is still WAY fun and a cool experience. I told my girlfriend that if she wants to go on the Salmon one day, I would readily go again. Totally worth it. But, no matter what river, where, and when you're interested, you absolutely can't go wrong with Momentum." - Erik 1 2 3 4 5

• Idaho Salmon - Rafting the River of No Return

  5 "It sounds cliche and kind of unbelievable, but I really can't imagine a better trip. The guides were fun, easygoing, and really professional - all while goofing off with us, cooking amazing meals, and avoiding huge rocks in the river. If I could have spared the time, I would have gone right back to the put-in for another round!" - Kevin Flick 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "9 Girls celebrating turning 60! What an amazing adventure Momentum River Expeditions prepared for us! Our guides, Orea, Trica, Glen and Mark were exceptional and kept us safe and “Hydrated “the entire time on the river! The food they prepared for breakfast, lunch and dinner was amazing! Orea and Trica’s skill and knowledge of the river, made the category 4 rapids a piece of cake for us beginners! I highly recommend this company and look forward to our next adventure with them! Thanks again, Carlita" - Carla Sharpe 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Absolutely wonderful trip, could not have asked for a better way to get off the grid and relax during this pandemic! Momentum did an amazing job not just with organizing and keeping things clean, but the leadership was stellar! Shana was an amazing trip leader, exuding confidence, patience, and cheerfulness every step of the way. The rest of the crew was incredible and I wish the trip had not ended so soon. I guess that would be my only complaint--it was too short! Next summer I think I’m going to head back to the Main Salmon for the second time with Momentum, and also try to do the Upper Klamath with them as well! And thanks to the crew for letting some of us do some alternate activities on this trip, such as trail running and hiking! Was phenomenal!" - Kristin Linzmeyer 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "We did the 3-day Rogue River Lodge to Lodge trip. This is river rafting at its best (great water and glamping). We've done several trips with Momentum and all of their trips have consistently been first class. We had a couple of friends who were somewhat reluctant (had never been rafting) who went with us. They had a blast and are now considering doing the Lower Owyhee with us next spring (we've already booked our trip)." - Tony Dasher 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "We did a private 4 day, 3 night rafting trip with Momentum on the Wild and Scenic Rogue with 3 families- kids ranging from 11-13. It was THE BEST in every way! The guides were knowledgeable, fun, attentive, hard working and amazing chefs. The equipment and organization was all perfect. The kids had an incredible time kayaking, swimming, jumping off rocks and hanging out in camp. The food was beyond expectation- every meal was creative, healthy and delicious. I highly recommend this trip for families looking for some fun and adventure!" - Sunny Maxwell 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Brandie and I had so much fun doing this raft trip. We sang and talked in movie quotes for three days and our guide Mike just chimed right in...we loved him. All three guides..Alyssa, Mike, and Mac-daddy (Michael) made this trip one we will never forget. Thanks so much guys! So ask for them when you are planning...." - Susan Sanders 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "My partner and I were used to doing DIY adventure trips so it was such a treat to be looked after by Momentum - with knowledgeable guides, delicious fresh food and lots of time on the river, we are definitely converts to this kind of trip! The trip was the perfect mixture of wild river, wildlife, wilderness and really comfortable beds in warm cabins at night - brilliant accommodation with nice hot showers! We got plenty of river time and our guide Sol made sure we enjoyed the best rapids and got involved in the inflatable kayak and SUP! The food was excellent, and we loved the nice touch of providing local wines and cheeses. We felt a real connection with the guides, they were so welcoming and interested in our lives, and couldn't do enough to ensure we had an epic time. Can't recommend this trip enough!" - Katie and Jon 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Three or so years ago, I made this same journey with a dozen other folks in heartbreakingly beautiful sunny weather — a wonderful trip. THIS time, I dragged my husband along, and together with just two other fellas and our superb guide Anna, we froze our butts off during a couple days of unseasonable rain. Yet, when I think back, all I can recall was the extraordinary natural beauty of the river, the camaraderie of our fellow paddlers, my admiration for our river guide, the comfort of our accommodations, and how grateful I was that second afternoon when we pulled into Paradise Lodge and got our “Rum and Tea” in the bar. Thank you, Momentum — can’t wait till next time!" - Susan Gee Rumsey 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue 3-Day Lodge Trips

  5 "I highly recommend Momentum River Expeditions! We did the 3 day lodge to lodge trip that was really the best of wilderness adventure and comfort. The crew were all amazing on the water and off. They created a very fun, educational, engaging, and relaxing environment where all our needs were easily taken care of. I’d join this classy group for another trip anytime! Thank you for the fun and adventure. Melisa - Sept 6-9th Rogue River" - Melisa Hiebert 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue 3-Day Lodge Trips

  5 "I always thought I needed at least a week to disconnect from work and truly relax - not true! A three day river trip with Momentum on the Rogue completely did the trick. As a matter of fact, at the end of the first morning I already felt like a new person - the river was gorgeous, the rafting so much fun, and the guides phenomenal. I really enjoyed the smaller group compared to prior trips with different companies, it created opportunities to connect with everyone on the trip. Will definitely be back for other trips with momentum!" - Sandrijn 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River 1/2 Day

  5 "Our family recently did the 1/2 day Rogue River rafting trip. I wish we had time to do the full day! Our day started with a minor snag but was very quickly fixed by Caleb who went above and beyond to make sure we were set up for a great trip. Our driver was Tina who was a delight to chat with to and from the rafting sight. She gave us some great tips on places to eat. Our rafting guide, Julio, was outstanding! He was so knowledgeable and funny. We were amazed at his stories and places he has rafted. We are looking forward to our next trip so we can plan a longer rafting trip. Thank you for a fantastic experience!" - Delia Garcia 1 2 3 4 5

• 5 "It was agreat experience. That the tents were always up was very conveniet. The guides were super, the best was the walking art museum, Lorenzo, waht an interesting guide, all were very friendly and approchable. Food was super, enough of everything plus fruits and vegetables. Amazing how fast 6 days can pass. I read ca. 15 years ago "The last opf the mountain man", neat to see his homestead on this trip. The highlight of my summer, my son was also on this trip, and he liked it a lot, too." - Gunnar Freitag 1 2 3 4 5

• Lower Owyhee

  5 "I have been on many rivers, 38 to be exact. Have used Momentum twice now using guides. Andy and Mike did a great job. One of the best I have encountered using guides. Not only was their guidance down the Owyhee fantastic so was there cooking. I had a friend come along who did not know how to swim. They did a great job in assisting and protecting his experience. They did it so well that he wants some more adventure. Joe Nelson" - Joe Nelson 1 2 3 4 5
