IEEE APS/URSI Conference

Pick from three different river adventures on two different rivers during your conference!

Clark Fork River - Whitewater

Perfect for the whole family. Big whitewater, eye-popping scenery and a mouth watering lunch make the 2.5 hour bus ride from Spokane to Montana worth it. Raft six class III rapids as ospreys and eagles soar overhead and beaver, otters and fish play beneath your raft. Within the first ten minutes you slip into the bottom of a geological wonder where Glacial Lake Missoula transformed Montana, Idaho, and Washington into a geological adventure. After all the whitewater, recharge your soul with a hot red potato bar, flame seared chicken, fresh salad greens and mouth watering toppings like sun dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, freshly shredded cheddar cheese, real bacon, all served "riverside." Back at the river house before you hit the road back to Spokane, enjoy FREE beer, juice, soda or water while you watch yourself on our screen running the biggest rapid of the day. Only a few select companies are allowed to raft the Alberton Gorge in Montana, come see why Pangaea makes the cut! No Experience Necessary! The Clark Fork River Whitewater trip is perfect for beginners and young children who have never run a river before.

Spokane - River Whitewater

On this two hour white water adventure you'll find beauty, whitewater rafting and volcanic rock the surging river has sculpted that should be in a museum! You Can't Imagine Something This Beautiful so Close to Spokane! The Spokane River carves its way through a steep, ponderosa river valley, gliding between civilization and spectacular volcanic rock formations. These rock formations make the lower Spokane River through Riverside State Park “one of the most interesting class III rapids in the state.” Leave the city behind as you dash through the Bowl and Pitcher and Devil's Toenail.
