Hellgate Jetboats

So, back to the vacation to Oregon. One night we went on the Hellgate Jetboats.
Jonathan had a blast. Guess why....
The driver would gun it, hit the brakes and send the nose of the boat into a dive and it would submerge the front of the boat down into the river, effectively getting anyone in the boat soaking wet. This wouldn't be so bad, but it was at 7:00pm...the Dinner Tour.
This is the site of where they filmed "The River Wild". To make it look like Montana, they covered the hill with fake trees and shrubs. We also saw the site of the big river jump at the end of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. If you ever find yourself in Southern Oregon...I highly reccomend this trip.
