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...

  •   This is were memories are made!!! I have sooo enjoyed my experiences with Zollers.. When I want something to have an exclamation point to the memory I include Zollers... read more be it a bachelor party adventure, connecting on a deeper level with my future in-laws (hehehe). When I want to make a moment to celebrate a life milestone these guys are the go to for me.. Family..in my opinion is the feel you get when you walk in, when you leave and most importantly on the river. I have connected on a deeper level with my son through the bond of Zollers Odysseys. Rafting with Zach as our guide not only makes you feel super safe but also gives you a great appreciation of the watershed your rafting through. O ya... my step daughter asked me the other day if I had any shirts that didnt have a picture of a Zollers raft on it..lol and i proudly said "Nope"

  •   This was my second trip on the White Salmon River with Zoller's. It's a pristine river with clear running water going through lush green canyons. We were guided... read more by Justin who did a great job training us, giving us knowledge about nature and history of the area. Zoller's is a very professional organization with good equipment, great staff and provides a great experience. Highly recommended.

  •   First time our grandkids, ages 8 and 11, had been white water rafting. They had a great time… especially “running the bull”. Jerry, our guide, made us feel... read more comfortable and safe. Be prepared to buy the photos as they are amazing. The grin on Jerry’s face after dunking our grandkids in the bull was so “I got them… and they are still in the boat”. I had been worried that with our heat and lack of rain, the river might be too low. However, since the water comes from snow melt the river was still high enough to give us nice rapids. The kids were too young to go over the falls but my husband and I did. I’m normally a scaredy-cat about these things, but so glad I did it. Casey took us over the falls and he made sure we had enough practice to be comfortable.

  •   Incredible experience I would recommend to everybody. I loved how they would customize the activities for any age and skill, you can do whatever you feel comfortable and they will... read more support you individually. Casey our guide was incredibly inspiring, fun, loving, and knowledgeable. He knew every little rock and current in the entire trip and he would tell you stories all the way. Pro tip: if you are lucky to get Casey as your guide ask him for a song and enjoy it in a peaceful segment of the river - you'll get goosebumps. You can even get a CD with his own album at the end of the trip and listen to it on your drive back home! Can't ask for more, would definitely repeat the experience!
