Having fallen under the Snake River in 2015 out of my kayak, I can affirm that the river is really cold, even when the temperature level remains in the triple digits. The streaming water makes it a little chillier, whereas a still body of water will generally be a little warm as it absorbs the sun. Instead of getting a shock in the overcrowded, strong-flowing river, head to a lake or pond rather.
