Whitewater rafting might seem intimidating, but if you have the right guides, it can also be a blast. Washington has plenty of companies that offer guided trips, but if you want a challenging, exhilarating and scenic adventure, book a Sauk River tour through Triad River Tours.

Triad River Tours is based out of Bellingham, and they offer all kinds of whitewater rafting adventures.
