Rivers

We are easing back into the real world after a wonderful week on the Middle Fork. We had high expectations based on the experiences of friends who have floated with Hughes as well as your very own testimonials. And we found out that everyone – even you – understated it! This was a trip that will not soon be forgotten…I will remember my first-ever sighting of bighorn sheep, Bill will remember his first attempt at fly fishing and of course, there was the camaraderie, great food and total relaxation. It was a great feeling to be in a place where the only Blackberries one might find are the ones found on bushes. And the guides? Well, they are seven good reasons why your company has such an outstanding reputation. Not only are they experienced boatmen who put safety first, they show a reverence for the resource and remind us all how it is to be protected and treasured. And they are pretty good cooks, too! Thank you, Jerry and Carole, for taking such good care of us. I hope to enjoy another Hughes trip again soon.

As expected, the trip down the Middle Fork was wonderful…my boys were in heaven for 6 days and the crew was very good… (5 trips with you over the last 17 years… time goes by way too fast).

What a great pleasure it was to boat the Middle fork with you and your crew. I cannot think of one thing more you could have done to provide better service or make the trip any more enjoyable. I thought I previously had experienced quality service on river trips, but Hughes River Expeditions proved the others to be rank amateurs.

We had a wonderful time in July on the Middle Fork. You had a great group of guides. We would like to go ahead and reserve the July 4th week of 2012 if it is not already taken. I will get you names of the participants as we get closer to the date.

Thanks for the great trip… It is spectacular country and great service. Paddling the kayaks through the rapids and falls was so invigorating. I need to get those juices flowing every couple of years. I hope to repeat the trip with Mary…

The kids adored you.  The adults were in awe of you.  Thanks for making the trip so special.  Big T would have loved that chocolate cake!

We just wanted to send you a note to tell you what a wonderful time our family had during our trip down the Middle Fork of the Salmon River on August 17th-22nd. We could not have asked for a better group of guides. Each and every one – Joel, Marshall, Aaron, Bob, Ryan, David and Eric was terrific. The guides worked and played continuously to provide our family with an unforgettable experience. The patience they had, and the rapport they displayed, with all three of our sons was unbelievable. We found your company to be first rate, from the guides, to the equipment, to the food. The entire journey was well organized and stress free. Thank you for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We hope to travel with you again in the future; our kids are already asking to do the Hells Canyon trip!
