MIDDLE FORK SALMON TRIPS
The Middle Fork of the Salmon River, Idaho A major headwaters section of the longest free-flowing
river in the lower 48 states. Designated by Congress in 1968 as a Wild
and Scenic River, bounded by four National Forests and the Idaho Primitive
Area, it is truly great to experience Nature at her best. It boasts the
second-deepest canyon of any North American river. From our put-in below
Dagger Falls, at Boundary Creek*, to our take-out on The Main Salmon,
at Cache Bar, 100 miles later, the river drops over 3,000 feet. From riffles
to falls, there are 341 rapids sufficiently exciting to have designations---23
Class III, seven Class IV.
If you look for excitement, relaxation, solitude, companionship and fun in a trip, The Middle Fork of the Salmon River, Idaho, has it all. This is truly the premier whitewater trip of the Northwest. It's called "The River of No Return," but you'll want to return many times. Air service provided by Salmon Air Taxi, and car shuttles provided by River Shuttles are available when you arrive in Idaho. Shuttle fee and plane fare are not included in the trip cost. The night prior to the start of the trip should be spent in Stanley to assure an early start the next morning. We recommend Mountain Village Lodge (800-843-5475). Advance reservations are required. * We leave Stanley as close to 9:00 AM as possible. Water levels determine our launch point. If we bus to Boundary Creek, we cover the transport costs. If we must fly in to another launch site, each person must cover his own airfare, usually around $80 per person. RAVE REVIEWS Many thanks for a fabulous trip down the Middle Fork of the Salmon. You are the best - everything was perfectly run and coordinated. Food, fishing, guiding, accommodations - everything was spectacular! I hope we will have a chance to join you again soon. - Sincerely, James Gaither Helfrich Middle Fork Salmon Trip
