I loved, loved, loved my experience with Blue Sky. Not only was the adventure a spendor, but Quil & Scott were so much fun. The barbeque was a nice touch (and very delicious + satisfying), my compliments to the chef! They were professional and very entertaing! Everything that we could possibly think of were provided for us. From the suit,... More

We had a wonderful time on Tieton River Trip with Blue Sky. We took our kids (in their 20's) myself and my husband on this trip for my husband's birthday. I was very nervous but I did not need to be. The safety training & equipment was great. Our guide (Jeremy?) was fun and knowledgeable. We spent about 3 hours... More

Thank you for your posting. The Tieton river is awesome and we had just a tremendous run on it this year. It is great for all ages and offers just the right amount of heart pounding fun! I'm glad that our Guides delighted you and you walked away with a lifetime memory. That's what our business is all about! We'll... More

If you choose one rafting business to raft the Mighty Tieton river during the month of September choose Blue Sky Outfitters; they were excellent value,organized, helpful, informative, relaxed, competent, skilled, and just fun to hang out with. Our guide, a wonderful young man named Jeremy, MADE the trip for us; he possessed a blend of skilled river knowledge, general knowledge... More

This was our first attempt at white water rafting. We took the half day trip on the Wenatchee river. My wife was a little apprehensive, but it turned out she enjoyed it as well. It was wild enough to have fun with some large waves but not so crazy as to cause inexperienced middle age people stress. I would have... More

This was not our first white water rafting trip. This poor rating comes directly from this company's inability to follow a schedule. Granted most people, even type-A, will give a little leeway on start times... BUT, 2 hours! I, as did many others, approached those young adults who appeared to be the guides... starting at 2:45. "Could we start filling... More

Hello, My sincerest apologies for your delayed trip. I'm not going to give you excuses like you are expecting, but rather take full responsibility for what happened. There are many logistical aspects of running an efficient Outfitter and ensuring that our trips are on-time. 99% of the time, they are. Yet there are some things that we can't predict which... More

This was my first rafting experience and I was actually a little freaked out about this trip at first. I'm not a high adventure thrill seeker type. My husband's work took us and we were a party of 18, taking up two boats, which was perfect for water fights. (Who knew I would be splashing my husband's boss in the... More

Glad to hear that you had such a great time! Scott is one of our most experienced guides, he is awesome. It turns out that a lot of customers who are originally apprehensive about their trip end up having the best time. Thanks for choosing Blue Sky! More

We recently had family and friends in town and decided to raft the Wenatchee river. Of our 8 "gilligan travelers" only 1 of us had ever been white water rafting before. The weather was beautiful, the water levels were still high because of the late winter snow and our guide Jackie was awesome. She helped make the entire experience that... More

Had a wonderful trip down the Methow during 4th of July weekend. Our guide was thoughtful, experienced and fun. Lots of gushing rapids and wildlife to view. The guide will tailor to your requests. We were a splash hungry group and were quite satisfied. The steak and corn on the cob were also excellent. I want to go again!! More

The Methow is a really great scenic river. We're glad to hear that you guys had a great time. If you are looking to do another trip, I would reccommend either the Tieton or the White Salmon! More

My partner & I signed up for the Tieton River Day Trip. It was the beginning of the run, with the damn being let out, but not at full force. We wanted a milder trip for our first time. We lucked out with a sunny day! Given the cold water we felt lucky to have sunshine drying us out between... More

This was our first time"whitewater" rafting. It was disappointing primarily because the Wenatchee River was very low and there was little whitewater. We got hung up on the rocks three times. Because the rafting wasn't so great, the guides either slowed or beached the rafts (there were about 10 rafts) and they clowned around, jumping off the rafts, dumping the... More
