5 day rafting trip for 2 in hells canyon with OARS
Hells Canyon is one of the deepest river gorges in North America — nearly 8,000 feet from rim to river, where the Snake River delivers some of the best whitewater in the Pacific Northwest. This 5-night trip with OARS takes you through towering basalt walls, past fascinating remnants of the canyon's past inhabitants, and into stretches of warm, clear water perfect for fishing and floating. Warm weather, big waves, and something for every age make this an unforgettable adventure. Restrictions apply.

3 Nights at Barking Mad Farm for 2 + a special experience
Come discover what makes our mission area so magical in the heart of the Wallowas. This beautifully restored farmhouse sits at the base of the Wallowa Mountains, with easy access to Wallowa Lake and the Eagle Cap Wilderness. Quiet mornings, stunning mountains, and warm hospitality await. This prize includes your choice of one exclusive outing with a member of our own staff:
​
Option 1 — Fly Fishing on the Wallowa River with Ian Wilson
Join our Stewardship Manager Ian Wilson for a guided fly fishing experience on the Wallowa River — open to all skill levels. Ian provides the gear, and his wife, Heidie, will treat you to a charcuterie spread and drinks riverside. Complete the evening with dinner (and maybe a pint!) at M Crow General Store.
​
Option 2 — Birdwatching Hike with Jamie Dawson
Head into the field with Conservation Director Jamie Dawson for a birdwatching hike through the mission area. Jamie is a walking encyclopedia of bird knowledge and an excellent guide. Take in the local flora and fauna, then end the evening your way - perhaps at Terminal Gravity Brewpub.
TERMS AND RESTRICTIONS: Book any available non-holiday weekends before May 2027. Your stay will be in the Seven Devils Suite.
The drawing will take place at Hellraiser on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at 6:30 PM. You may purchase as many individual tickets as you like. You do not need to be present at Hellraiser to win.
