What an introduction to the interior northwest! With ship docked in Clarkston, we embarked on the first day of our expedition. Shortly after breakfast we boarded three jet boats to explore some 50 miles up Snake River, into Hells Canyon, North America’s deepest river gorge. After a day of world-class whitewater, spectacular mountain vistas, abundant wildlife, and ancient petroglyphs, we returned to National Geographic Quest to enjoy discussions both entertaining and informative, led by Nez Perce storyteller JR Spencer.
