So what sets Sands apart?
Consider this:
We're Celebrating our fifth decade, which means Sands is one
of the most seasoned rafting companies here in Jackson Hole.
Sands is the only Snake River rafting company still actively
owned and operated by one of the original Sultan's of the
Snake, the pioneers of Snake River white water rafting.
And at the same time, we feel like a brand new outfit with
our expanded line of rafts, our renovated facilities and
changing rooms and our upgraded life jackets, wetsuits,
river booties and ponchos.
As one of the largest
rafting companies in Jackson, we've taken tens of thousands
of people safely down the Snake River, including the
President of the United States. And, by making sure you
enjoy every moment,
we've become one of the most
respected rafting companies in the valley. We want your
entire experience with us to be positive and memorable, from
the first time you call our front desk to the moment you say
thanks to your shuttle driver.

Add to that:
Our years of
experience begin with our hard-working boatmen.
They have floated the Snake hundreds of times,
giving them
a deep knowledge of every turn, rapid, and
current,
which means they know where it's safe to go, and
where not to go. Of course, our boatmen aren't
the only ones with experience.
Our entire staff is prepared to make sure
your visit is safe and exciting.
