Sundog Expeditions
Rafting, Dory Trips and Whitewater River Adventures
in the Western U.S. and Alaska
WELCOME TO SUNDOG EXPEDITIONS!
Since 1990 we have been planning and guiding the highest-quality whitewater rafting adventures and scenic float trips available. On Sundog trips you will find the perfect mix of ingredients for a fantastic vacation.


SPECTACULAR RIVERS
Our dory and raft trips take you to the best wild country in Idaho, Oregon, Arizona and Alaska. Each river we run has been selected for its distinctive features.
• Classic Idaho whitewater, pristine sand beaches and warm starry nights make the Salmon River a great summer trip choice for you and your entire family.
• In spring, the pine forests of the Grande Ronde and the sagebrush steppes of the Owyhee Rivers are brimming with wildflowers and birds. Our Oregon rafting trips are a perfect segue to summer.
• South Central Alaska’s spectacular Copper and Nizina Chitina Rivers and the surreal Kongakut River in the Arctic Refuge are among the most remote and beautiful places on earth. All you need is an adventurous spirit to join us on a genuine Alaska rafting expedition!
GREAT GUIDES, FANTASTIC FOOD
Our guides will make your vacation exceptional. The Sundog crew is experienced, knowledgeable, trained in safety and wilderness first aid, they love people, and can they ever cook!
A TRIP FOR YOU
Sundog offer trips for everyone. Families, couples, partners, solo travelers, first-time campers, veteran rafters, outdoor enthusiasts and individuals with disabilities are welcome on our trips.
