The
Middle Fork of the Salmon
River trip is one of the premier whitewater rafting
rivers in the West. The many great
whitewater rapids have made the Middle Fork famous, but it also has an amazing
variety of other attractions that will make you 6-day river trip a spectacular
vacation. The water is crystal clear and beautiful, and the fishing for
native cutthroat trout can be extraordinary. Relaxing natural hot
springs dot the river corridor, and there are numerous Native American
and pioneer historic sites to explore. The area is home to bighorn
sheep, deer, elk, black bear, river otters and other wildlife that can
often be seen along the river.
The Middle Fork flows through the heart of the 2.3 million acre Frank
Church Wilderness Area, the largest wilderness in the lower 48. From
its beginning high in the mountains of central Idaho, you’ll travel
over 100 miles through breathtaking, continually changing scenery.
You’ll be descending approximately 3,000 feet in elevation,
beginning in the high, dense forests of fir and spruce, passing by
majestic ponderosa pines dotting grassy slopes, and finally entering the
rugged granite gorge of Impassable Canyon.
The only thing that could make your trip on the Middle Fork any better
is making it longer! Why not continue on down the famous Main
Salmon River, the River of No Return, for 5 more days. Its an
incredible 11-day trip covering over 180-miles of river!
Our six-day trips
on the Middle Fork will be a vacation you'll always remember for the
rapids, spectacular scenery, fishing, hot-springs, and great hiking, but
you'll also remember the experience, knowledge, kindness, and fun-loving
nature of our guides. We'll have oar-boats, paddle-boats, and
inflatable kayaks available so you can choose your level of excitement.
Join us this summer for a fabulous trip on one of America's best
whitewater rivers! Return to Idaho Whitewater
