Address: 856 Highway 141, Husum, WA. 98623

From Portland/Vancouver Area:

Travel East on I-84 towards Hood River, Oregon. Take exit #64 to White Salmon; travel north across the Columbia River and the toll bridge (into Washington). Take a LEFT (heading WEST on HWY 14) as soon as you reach a stop sign, immediately after the bridge, turn LEFT. Travel WEST for 1.2 miles and just before the bridge take a Right on Alt. HWY 141 (first major road on RIGHT). Follow the sign to Trout Lake and HWY 141 (1.4 miles); at the stop sign turn LEFT onto HWY 141 and continue to Husum roughly 4 miles. We have a meeting and storage area located just before the small town of Husum on the Right (look for the BIG RED BARN)! There is signage clearly indicating River Drifters! We are on the RIGHT hand (East) side of the road. If you cross the White Salmon River (via bridge), you have gone too far! You will see a sign on the building, a River Drifters bus or van with rafts easily identifiable!

Please allow 90 minutes traveling time from Portland or 20 minutes from Hood River!
