Wow, the Owyhee, Oregon's Grand Canyon, one of America's wildest rivers.  This is a river which few have had the opportunity to experience, but no one will forget.  Join ONDA and enjoy 5 days of rafting through the inspiring rock formations, with time for side hikes to ancient petroglyphs and hot springs, great food and star gazing.

We have partnered with Momentum Rafting Expeditions to provide an unforgettable experience:  Expertly prepared gourmet organic meals, fantastic experienced guides and naturalists, and with a full range of opportunities to make the trip as active or laid-back as you like: from captaining your own inflatable kayak to just soaking in the scenery while riding on an oar raft.

BACKGROUND:  ONDA has worked to help protect the Owyhee river system for over a decade. Our efforts include two successful lawsuits:  In 1998 ONDA won the Owyhee Wild and Scenic  River Act lawsuit, removing cows from the river corridor. In 2007, ONDA's injunction successfully halted BLM's construction of broad-scale range projects in areas with wilderness values in West Little Owyhee River's Louse Canyon area.  ONDA staff and volunteers have inventoried over 2 million acres for wilderness values in the Owyhee watershed, contributing towards a future Wilderness bill.  ONDA is also working on a National Conservation Area proposal for the Owyhee.

WHEN: Plan to arrive in or near Rome the night of April 30^th.  We will meet our guides at the Rome landing on May 1st, at 8:30 AM (Pacific Time).
