Rafting & Mine Tours...

Smooth Scenic Floats (1/2 day)
These trips offer a relaxing float morning or evening with abundant beautiful scenery and wildlife to view and photograph along the way. There are no rapids on this section which flows by the town of Salmon where the river is wide and smooth. Drink and home-made treat is included. You may choose a paddle or oar raft. If your lodging in Salmon we can come right to your motel and pick you up.

1 Day White Water Rafting
Our one day trip includes floating a 13 mile section of the Salmon River 17 miles west of North Fork, where it flows through a beautiful canyon forming some great rapids! This trip is enjoyed by folks ranging in age from 5 to late 70's. Your have your choice between a paddle boat (shown at left) or an oar boat where the guide sits in the center of the raft and you just need to sit and hang on. Most of our guests seem to enjoy the paddle raft as you are more pro-active and possible get alittle wetter!! Your picture is taken as you go through Pine Creek Rapids. A barbecued lunch is prepared for you along the river's edge and besides the main entree it includes horderves, fresh salads and home baked deserts. A camera can be brought on the raft and kept in a dry bag for safe keeping during the rapids. We usually see big horn sheep and an occasion mountain goat along the way not to mention some very majestic scenery.

At the end of our 1 day white water rafting adventure many of our guests have commented "Wow, this is so much fun we don't want this trip to be over!"  Well, it doesn't have to be!

 For those adventure seekers who are after more excitement and want to experience a longer, quality time on the river we offer 2 and 3 day trips as well.

2 Day White Water Rafting
We float 30 miles with equally good rapids on both days viewing some of the most awesome scenery that Idaho has to offer. 4 delicious hearty meals are prepared and served for you fresh and plentiful Dutch oven style. We camp on a secluded and beautiful island and provide all camping gear. Usually folks bring their own sleeping bag, but we have some for rent if need be. A menu questionnaire is sent to our 2 day guests as we do our best to provide meals to their individual tastes making adjustments for any diet restrictions or allergies. Some fishing can be done on the 2nd day of the trip, with equipment provided at a $25 minimum fee.

3 Day White Water Rafting
For our  3 day trips, a  47 miles section of the river is rafted, with a second night also camping along the river's edge.  7 meals are provided.   For both of these trips all camping gear is provided.  Usually folks bring their own sleeping bags, but we have some for rent if need be.  A menu questionnaire is sent to our 2 & 3 day guests as we do our best to provide meals to their individual tastes making adjustments for any diet restrictions or allergies.  Some fishing can also be done on these trips with equipment provided at a $25 minimum fee.

Gold Mine Tours
are included in our 1, 2 and 3 day rafting trips. This section of the river is rich in history as gold was discovered in the late 1880's. Some of the original building built by the miners are still standing. A very informative and interesting talk is given, along with a demonstration of gold panning and a walk into an old mine shaft and mill building. This tour enhances the whole rafting experience and is very much enjoyed by all our guests.
