Customer Experience
We just wanted to send you a note to tell you what a wonderful time our family had during our trip down the Middle Fork of the Salmon River on August 17th-22nd. We could not have asked for a better group of guides. Each and every one – Joel, Marshall, Aaron, Bob, Ryan, David and Eric was terrific. The guides worked and played continuously to provide our family with an unforgettable experience. The patience they had, and the rapport they displayed, with all three of our sons was unbelievable. We found your company to be first rate, from the guides, to the equipment, to the food. The entire journey was well organized and stress free. Thank you for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We hope to travel with you again in the future; our kids are already asking to do the Hells Canyon trip!

Still thinking about our wonderful trip with you all…what a gift!

I just had to tell you how much fun I had with Ashley and the guys. Seeing Buzz again was awesome and meeting Tony and Mark was great. Loved the beautiful Ronde. Thanks again for a wonderful time. I am game for the Middle Fork JAZZ trip next August. While we are ABLE we should do as many as possible. I will be able to go til I am 98!

We are home again and still rocking a little bit from riding down the Middle Fork. It was a great trip made especially pleasant because all of your staff were first class. They gave us great confidence in the river and then took excellent care of us ashore. I gained four pounds. Summed up, our first river experience was wonderful. I’m only sorry we waited twenty five years from our first plan to ride “The River of No Return”.

Thanks again for a great river trip. You impressed a group of people who aren’t easy to impress! I’m looking forward to my next trip. Hope to see you soon.

My daughter and I had the most wonderful adventure… I can not thank you enough for the opportunity to live outdoors in comfort for the better part of a week in the wilderness. The entire crew was meticulous about the environment and care of the ‘guests’. I never worried about the safety of my 10 year old because all of the guides were cautious and capable. I also appreciated the fact that she could observe their concern for our natural surroundings.
C. Samuelson, Newton, MA (1996)
Such a rare and unique opportunity to get away from city life and experience river time…. I enjoyed every moment, going between boats, great food, kids being kids, and good company. No one could have justly described the experience until I tasted it myself…. I am already thinking of my core friends who need to experience this and with whom, I shall travel with next year down the Snake. Perhaps a JAZZ trip also in a couple of years…

I can’t say enough positive things about our trip and experience (Middle Fork August 1-6), and about the Hughes guides – every one of them. Thank you so much Jerry, and our sincere appreciation and thanks to Colin, Tony, Bob, Josh, David, Marshall, and Mark. It was truly amazing and lifetime memorable for us – no doubt about it! We will be back for sure.

“John and I wish to tell you again how much we appreciate all your care and generosity. You have provided a “treasure” for us to savor for years to come.”
S. & J. Broderick, Bend, OR (2016)
I want to thank you for the trip you put together for our group in July. We had a great time…Ashley, Fred, Ryan, Eric, and Hugh Cooke are all great and took very good care of us. With the four 7-9 year olds, Ashley sort of got turned into a childcare boat and the recreational manager, along with her other responsibilities, and the kids all loved her. Each time we do a rafting trip your people make it a memorable event and please pass along our thanks.
