Days One Through Three » Upon launching our rafts at Boundary Creek, 6000 feet above sea level, you’ll enter an enchanted forest of fir and spruce that scents the high mountain air. Sparkling clear waters careen through boulder-choked rapids with names that guides speak with reverence such as Velvet Falls, Pistol Creek and Tappan Falls. Stops at mountain hot springs and pioneer homesteads provide the perfect balance to the on-river excitement.

Days Three Through Six » As we drop in elevation, the river widens and the spruce forest opens to vistas of pine-studded mountains. Between rapids, you’ll drift quietly over deep pools of transparent water, home to native cutthroat and rainbow trout. Hikes underneath Waterfall Creek and up to Veil Falls are highlights for many of our guests. At the conclusion of our trip, you’ll enjoy a beautiful bus ride to Salmon, Idaho where we’ll savor one final dinner together.



NOTE: You have two choices to get to STANLEY, the starting point of the trip, FLYING or DRIVING.

1) There is an air taxi service that will take you from Boise to Stanley at the start of the trip, and from Salmon back to Boise at the end of the trip for roughly $290. Most people prefer this. You can contact Salmon Air at 1-800-448-3413.

2) If you are 3 or more people it may be more economical to rent a car in Boise and drive 2.5 hours to Stanley before the trip. Then the rental car is shuttled north while you are on the river at a cost of $120. Then once we are off the river and in the town of Salmon you drive about 5.5 hours back to Boise. So, if you have plenty of time this is a good option. Contact River Shuttles at 1-800-831-8942.

From our observation of other groups on the river, your company was by far the best organized and most professionally handled group. We enjoyed the trip and would recommend your company to any of our friends. Congratulations to your entire group. They were great!
