Story of Zoller's Outdoor Odysseys - upd Apr 2005

After three decades of leading outdoor recreation on the river's of South West Washington, Zoller's Outdoor Odysseys has expanded operations to one of the "Big Three" in U.S. whitewater, Hells Canyon of the Snake River.

At age 9, second generation river guide and company president of Zoller's Outdoor Odysseys, Mark Zoller accompanied his father, Phil Zoller on a 5 day commercial whitewater trip through Hell's Canyon where Idaho borders Oregon. Unknowingly at the time, Mark Zoller would return to the canyon 32 years later as the owner of the same river company.

"The Snake River through Hell's Canyon can simply be described as big water" says Zoller. As the newest member of the few elite river companies to be permitted by the U.S. Forest Service for commercial work on the Wild and Scenic Snake River, Zoller's will rely on their 30 plus years of Hell's Canyon knowledge, and river experience to create an unforgettable vacation for all ages.

"We provide it all on this trip. From sleeping bags, to gourmet cuisine, we take care of the details so you don't have to. The only thing you need to provide is your personal clothes and toothbrush. Even the hot showers are rafted into the canyon".

The Zoller family has recently been featured in LIFEStyle magazine
Nickelodeon¹s TV series Splash TV, multiple local newspapers, and Justine magazine.

An outdoor adventure company for over three decades Zoller's Outdoor
Odysseys have been solely owned and operated by the Zoller family. The Zoller's have entertained hundreds of thousands of guests from all corners of the globe. Says Dana Peck Economic Development Director for Klickitat County, "the Zoller's have done more to put Klickitat County on the tourism map than seems possible from a single family. In addition to being a great outdoor experience, the family-run business is also an exceptional neighbor with a long history of giving back to the community."
