Testimonials

“What just might be the best commercial rafting company in North America. The trips are spectacular beyond description, the guides are the best of the best, the food is incomparable, and the customers are treated like royalty.”

 

To all our past and present guests – Thank You!  At the end of every year we sift through the emails and the photos from all of you and it never fails to give us goose bumps, it never fails to make us happy (and a little sad), and it never fails to remind us of the power and beauty of our wild places and, even more importantly, of the unique and remarkable people we are lucky enough to spend time with on the river every season.

So, with your continued support, wonderful personalities, and adventurous spirits we will continue to keep and attract the best guides anywhere. We will continue to reshape the way river travel is run and to work towards setting the standard in trip quality and environmental responsibility. And we will continue to run rivers and add adventures that are the best in their class and that are off the beaten path.

To all past and present guests a huge –

“THANK YOU!”

  • Upper Klamath Day Trips

    "Just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip last Saturday. Both of us felt that Alan was a SUPERB guide - he was so friendly and competent that we felt totally relaxed on the trip, and the lunch he prepared for us on the river was spectacular. We will definitely recommend your company to our friends. "
  • Upper Klamath River Rafting Safari

    "This trip was an introduction to White water rafting for both my pre-teen kids and my 65 year old mother-in-law. I feel like I took them to the Louvre on their first visit to an art museum. If only I had a nickel for every time my 9 year old son turned to me after being swallowed up and spit out by a wall of water and said "that was AWESOME!". A confident guide, great water, a perfect mix of going big and catching our breath, as well as great food in a beautiful setting. We'll be back! That was AWESOME! Dave and Laura Beal Santa Rosa, CA."

    "I recently had the pleasure of being your guest, along with 15 of my colleagues from the Math Department at SOU, on the upper Klamath River. Many of us were doing white water rafting for the first time. We simply had a wonderful time. Your crew and guides were fantastic! We were fed delicious food, given excellent instructions, and our guides made sure we all had a fun and safe float down an awesome river. Thanks to you all for making our time so special. "

    "Thanks again for the great trip! Brad, Amanda and I really enjoyed ourselves with you on the river. Brad is still "digging in" around the garden, but it's really not quite the same. We will give you a call again if we are ever up your way...we are now hooked! "

    "I appreciate your attention to details and sharing your passion with us. Thank you for your advice to take the Upper Klamath. If I go Class 5 then Cal Salmon may be the one. Next trip we take will be with my wife. I hope your business does well and I will recommend your company to anyone interested in great rafting trips. Paige was a pleasure to meet. "

    "Hi Pete, we had a really great time, your knowledge of nature and the local landscape made the trip interesting and the river was so exciting! Gil and I will always remember your interest in the people you guide and have already told our friends about the fantastic time we had and the terrific guide you are!"
  • Upper Klamath Day Trips

    "I was not sure how I would feel about an all day river rafting Class 4 rapids trip having very little experience rafting and being generally risk adverse! However, this was a wonderful experience for me, as well as my husband and 13 and 17 yo children. Our guide, Anthony, inspired absolute confidence and skillfully negotiated the rapids. The trip was beautiful and fun and jumping into the river and swimming at the end of the trip was also a highlight."

    "Thanks Alan. You were a wonderful Guide. The boys really had a great time. Also, please be sure to tell whomever it is that needs to know, that Rachel was fantastic as well. As the front line contact, she made all the difference in the world in my choosing Momentum instead of another company. And, your services made it clear that I will always seek to book through Momentum rather than any competitor. In fact, when my nephews and I were discussing the probability of making it a yearly event, they insisted that we try to use the same company! Feel free to pass my comments along and even use them in advertising (without my last name) if it would be helpful."

    "Dear Alan and Mike, Of course - it was wonderful! Amelia and Gavriella BOTH begin college this week, and I together with my wife (Lisa) embark upon empty-nesthood. The trip on the Upper Klamath was beautiful for us. We enjoyed getting to know the other members of the group - and while you all worked your tails off, we had great fun. Needless to say - the RIVER is spectacular. We'll be back! Joey"

    "We had so much fun and are still talking about it! You are a lively river guide and we loved that we felt safe yet challenged! If we dont make it to one of those lovely rivers next Spring, rest assured, we will be planning our 50th Birthdays there! (closer than you think)."

    "Carter and I had a great trip on the Upper Klamath with you and the Momentum crew. Can't wait to do it again! Get wet!"
  • Upper Klamath Day Trips

    "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 blast and you made it happen! Your skills, knowledge, and passion made even the scariest parts exhilarating fun for a whitewater wimp like me. Great trip from start to finish...you guys are awesome. Thanks so much!"

    "from the moment we were picked up to being returned to our car Alan and the crew made us feel really welcome, my wife and I had a fantastic day on the upper klamath river, excellent white water, wildlife and they fed us a lovely breakfast while unloading the boats, a superb lunch and a snack while they loaded the boats for our return to Ashland, thanks again for a superb trip."

    "Thank you for taking such good care of our group on Wednesday. I hear the trip was a great success and a good time was had by all even with the less than optimal weather. Your care, skill and customer service did not go unnoticed and was greatly appreciated, I only wish I could have been there to enjoy it! Thank you again and have a great season."

    "I just wanted to express how much we enjoyed our trip with Momentum River Expeditions. It was an amazing day, and completely exceeded our expectations in every area. From the moment we entered the van in the morning, we felt welcomed by the whole Momentum crew. You were all so friendly, relaxed and professional we knew we had a great day ahead. From the delicious, beautifully prepared food -- to the nature and history explanations along the way, I can't imagine a better crew. You all made us feel at ease with your humor, but thankfully confident with your detailed instructions and vast knowledge of the river. Jason, thank you too for bringing our boat together, and making us feel like a team. We all had so much fun, and really bonded with our wonderful other rafters. I know this was due to your great guiding style. Our rafting trip was by far the best part of our weekend trip for all of us. You now have three new fans, and we can't wait for our next river expedition. I hope to come up to visit my mom in Grants Pass this spring with my family. If at all possible, a trip with Momentum will definitely be part of it. I can't thank you enough for giving us a such an incredible experience that will be part of my memories and heart for a long time to come. "

    "Hi Mara!! We had a wonderful time rafting with you! The excitement of the whitewater, the team effort, and the amazing beauty along the river was unparalleled. And we appreciated your friendly personality as well. Oh by the way, I remember telling you about an environmental activist by the name Derrick Jensen. I thought you might find his work interesting. You should look him up! The last book I read was "Strangely Like War: The Global Assault on Forests". Really good book. Anyway, we hope to go rafting again soon; the Illinois River trip sounds great!
