Rogue Jets is the first jet boat tour to begin operating in America.
Their experience and the same-family operation since 1958 bodes well
when choosing your tour of the glorious Rogue River! |

The morning
of our September 30 trip started out with a dreamy Oregon Coast
fog still hanging low over the mountains along the shoreline.
|
|
|
|
Just a
few miles up river, however, the clouds started parting and revealing
streaks of blue sky which added to the beauty of the chilly morning.

Passing
under the Lobster Creek Bridge.
|
|
|
|
We passed
lots of anglers on the shoreline as well as many boating fishermen.

This guy
did better than one empty handed one we passed, who reported, "Well,
if I'd catch one more, I'd have one!"
|
|
|
|
Around
every bend there were abundant photogenic opportunities.

There's
nothing like being on the water to whet your appetite. Jerry's gives
you three choices of dining. We chose Singing Springs Resort and
really enjoyed the buffet eaten outside on the riverfront deck.

Here's
our great and entertaining Captain Tim getting ready to pick us
up for the return trip.

It was
a lot warmer and sunnier on the way home and the reflections of
the interesting rock formations on the water were even more striking.

2 cents: Not
only is this company concerned with you having a blast of a
time, but they provide all the stuff you need to stay comfortable
as well. Warm blankets and water resistant jackets are passed
out for your use during the trip. I was impressed with the whole
operation and recommend you make this a must-do excursion when
you're on the beautiful Oregon Coast. |
