We enjoyed a visit from Dave Hansen of Dave Hansen Whitewater yesterday. Despite the hefty amount of snow still left in the mountains, whitewater trips on the Snake River have already begun. And just like our epic winter, this summer will prove to be one not to be missed by whitewater enthusiasts and summer adventurers. Dave told us of the company's new blog, complete with nearly daily updates of the whitewater adventures happening throughout the summer. Sure enough, when I went to check out the latest from the river scene, I found this picture of some rafters enjoying the first splash of the season. Clad in wetsuits, booties and other warm clothing, the river rats stayed nice and warm as they navigated some of the Snake's best rapids.

With spring in full swing, daily blue skies, rising water levels and spectacular views of the Tetons and wildlife, now is the time to get your feet wet.
