A Wilderness Not So Distant

A Wilderness Not So Distant

by Mark Zoller | Jun 23, 2020 | Columbia River Gorge, Washington and Oregon fun and outdoor activities, Hiking, wild flowers

Is a wilderness area to vast and far to enjoy? Is it there only for the extreme explorer? Fortunately a congressionally designated wilderness area can be either magnificently vast and extreme and sometimes easily accessible and breath-taking. Within just minutes of my...

Customer Reviews

  •   We had a great time on the river yesterday with Zollers! I have been white water rafting several times and this was the best experience yet! Our guide AJ... read more provided clear instructions and was very personable and fun! The water was pretty high and fast which made the trips even more exciting. I was happy to see that they take safety very seriously. There were two rescue rafts traveling with our two raft tour and we were frequently reminded of different safety measures such as waiting for the raft behind us as they went over difficult rapids. I hope to come back one day to do the lower section! Thank you AJ and Zollers for a fun trip!

  •   This is a world class outfitter on a world class stretch of whitewater! I have rafted all over the globe and I have rarely seen such a clean, presentable, professional... read more operation. Friendly staff, solid guides, top notch equipment, and private river access make this the outfitter to choose on the White Salmon River!

    I arrived, was greeted by the nice folks that run this family-owner outiftter, and felt at home right away. After a solid and informative orientation we descended the steep stairs from Zoller's beautifully landscaped adventure outpost into the heart of the White Salmon Gorge - seriously, the adventure starts right there! Big rapids, fun times, and an excellent river guide made this the highlight of my trip to White Salmon. I'm going to go again!

    Thanks to the Zoller team today - especially my guide Hurley, an obviously enthusiastic and talented whitewater pro!

  •   I have to say Jason our guide was the best. Extremely professional but very tactful in explaining what was expected.
    My wife was very nervous about doing this trip.... read more But after a little conversation with Jason she felt comfortable to go. I have been on rafting trips thru out Colorado, and Arizona Utah, and have used many guides, but Jason was incredible. His knowledge of how to read the water, his ability to teach ( in a short time ) those that it was a first trip for and above all his ability to make this group come together as one and enjoy all the fun.
    My hat or helmet is off to Jason ofZoller rafting in White Salmon, Washington.
    Thank you Jason hope to see you in the Virgin Islands for a fly fishing trip.
