History
Mad River Boat Trips is a river outfitter in Jackson Hole, Wyoming offering whitewater river trips and scenic floats daily during the summer since 1977. Early in the nineteenth century, a group of trapper explorers were the first to investigate the stretch of the Snake River below Jackson Hole. Deciding at the time that it was far too treacherous to boat, they called it "The Mad River". The boats may have changed over the years, but here at Mad River, the passion for adventure remains the same. The Snake River in Jackson Hole has been classified as a class I-III river, enjoy anything from a flat water scenic float in the north, to exciting whitewater rapids in the Snake River Canyon to the south.
