Triangle X Ranch – Scenic Float Trips

We did the 11am float trip on Sept 15. It was by far the highlight of our 15 day trip. It was both incredibly relaxing and breathtaking. The guide talked exactly the right amount- making sure we learned interesting things about the area and how it was formed but also we enjoyed the silence and tranquility of floating peacefully down the gorgeous Snake River. It was easy to stay spread out (social distanced) on the boat. They required masks during the van ride. Highly recommend for people of all ages.

We had Matt Hankes as our guide. He was absolutely incredible. He told us all about the history of the park, the history of the snake river and how it is always changing, and had a lot of information about the animals in the park. He did super well considering we didn’t have a lively group of passengers. He made the best of it by being engaging and personable. He also remembered everyone’s name after having each of us introduce ourselves. I would not go to Grand Teton without going on one of these float trips. And Triangle X/Matt made it unforgettable.

The experience was top notch! Starting with the booking process. I had some questions so I called the office and spoke to Austin. He was extremely helpful and polite. After speaking with him I booked the trip online. About an hour later it occurred to me that I had booked for the wrong day. I called the office and Austin immediately fixed it and didn't make feel like a fool for booking the wrong day. Matt was our guide down the river. He was extremely knowledgeable of the geography and history of the area. He truly has a passion for the river and ensuring his guests are entertained, safe, and having fun! During the trip we saw lots of Beavers (Matt was very good at pointing them out), Ospreys, Bald Eagles, Canadian Geese, Ducks, and even a mama Moose and her baby. I highly recommend Triange X (and Matt) for an enjoyable float trip on the Snake River!

Our guide Matt was prompt to the meeting site. He was full of interesting facts and fun stories about the surrounding area. He made each of us feel special. I would encourage a very early trip to see most of the wildlife. We went at 8:15a.m. and did not see moose or elk. We did see the beautiful snake river and surrounding mountains. We saw bald eagles and osprey and so much more.

Such a great way to see the Tetons! We had a toddler and she enjoyed the adventure. (Snacks helped!) Float trip seemed like a great way for us to see it all versus a big hike, with a toddler. Sophie helped book and she was great. Jim guided us and his knowledge was awesome. Saw a moose eating, bald eagles nesting and fly fishermen pulling in fish. Great adventure.
