Rogue River Rafting 1 Day Trips

Gearing Up!

Here is Team O'Brien getting the gear set up for a River Time lunch on the Rogue River. You've just got to try the river brownies!

Happy Memorial Day Week End

The celebration of our Veterans who have fought for the freedoms we all share is one of the many great events happening along the Rogue River these days.
Here's to living life with no regrets!


Thank you to the men and women who have given us liberty.
Happy Memorial Day!

Oregon River Time

The willow trees along the river bank and nearly leafed out and the cottonwood trees are in full bloom. That can mean only one thing: It's River Time!

Paddle Raft Fun

Our paddle raft crews have the most fun out on the water! The team work is just the beginning, then the humor, the competition, the lift off, the humor, the water fights, the paddling in sync, the humor, riding the bull, friendships, and did we mention humor?
Oregon Paddle Rafting with your friends, family, and folks-you-just-haven't-met-yet-friends is all part of the Paddle Raft Fun!

Over Flow Parking

Ever get stuck in the over flow parking? We do it all the time! It couldn't be a prettier little beach, complete with wild mustard, fresh water creek, and a perfect swimming hole. The evening entertainment includes the busy beaver making his home, and more stars in the sky that you can count in a life time. Head on out to the over flow parking and keep real time with us!

Paddle and Ride

Here are the star attractions on our One Day Raft Trips and Half Day Raft Trips on the Rogue River. We have two types of rafts and inflatable kayaks.


The Maravia Fleet have names like Willy and Mistral! These are self bailer boats and we use them as "paddle rafts". These fast, rocket boats love the waves, take on water, and never let you know they have be wet!


The Rogue Inflatable is legendary. It was designed and built by a local rafting and fishing guide especially for the Rogue. We use it as an "oar boat" and it loves to carry a group of people looking for a fantastic ride.
Great gear, great guides and great guests: join us on the river!

Another Day at the Office!

The spring time weather and water levels can be unpredictable, but the fun on the water and the great rides in the waves are always spectacular! Here is to another great day at the office!

Rogue River Raft Trips

Here we are at the end of an early season, late evening trip on the banks of the Rogue River. The 2010 season is upon us, and we are ready to ride the waves, drift through the deep canyons, bask in the Southern Oregon sunshine, and enjoy River Time!


Come on out for a river lunch with O'Brien's Rogue River Outfitters. You will be glad you brought your appetites!

The Lower Rogue

We took a pleasure drive down to Foster Bar over the week end to pick up some friends and neighbors who ran the Lower Rogue. It is truly beautiful country. The road up from Gold Beach runs along the South side of the Rogue River. Twenty eight miles up this road is Cougar Lane, then another 7.5 miles and the take out point is Foster Bar. Life moves at a slower pace in these parts.


At Foster Bar, there was little activity in the late morning. We enjoyed the view from the salmon dock, and noted the count on the stove was 10 salmon landed so far this year.


By noon the place was loaded with rafts, vans, trailers, trucks, kayaks, catarafts, people, and stories! There is such a positive energy surrounding the ride, the rapids, and the relationships the Rogue River offers.


Take a ride, float, or drive and find out what life is like on the Lower Rogue.

Oregon Rafting

Take Your Mom out to Dinner!

That's right! Take her outside to dinner and celebrate all the good things that you know you learned from her! Play a little easy listening music while you are at it...the river is always willing to hum a little tune!
Happy Mother's Day!

Wild Lupine in Bloom

The wild lupine is in full bloom all along the river. The purple is so striking in contrast to the rugged layer of rocks and the rich green colors of spring. The water is still traveling at a healthy flow and Lost Creek dam is nearly full. This means plenty of water for summer time rafting and fun with family! Take a deep breath, you just might smell the lupine!
