Salmon River Canyons
Trips still available to book for the summer of 2018!
Join the Hughes Crew on Idaho’s Salmon River Canyons. Green, Cougar, Snow Hole, and Blue Canyons are hidden Gems of the West. The “River of No Return” provides exhilarating Class II-IV whitewater including Demon’s Drop, Pine Bar, Bodacious Bounce, Half & Half, Snow Hole, China, Wapshilla, Zig Zag, Slide, Sluice Box, Checkerboard, Eye of the Needle, and more. Enjoy self-bailing oar rafts, paddle rafts, and inflatable kayaks. The Salmon Canyons are a perfect multi-generational family vacation.
These river miles of the Salmon have also been called “the California Coast of Idaho”, or “Baja Idaho” in reference to the area’s vast, football field sized sandbars. The exotic white sand beaches provide some of the most impressive river camps in the West. Superb locations for volleyball, frisbee, washers, horseshoes, sand castles, and plain old romping around.
Whitewater, harsh basalt/rhyolite canyonlands, Native American cultural sites, Chinese Miner sites, exotic sandbar camps, temperate water for swimming, fishing for smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, and white sturgeon, and jumping rocks make this a “bucket list” river trip. Don’t miss the Salmon River Canyons.

The Central Idaho snow-pack is hovering right around 100 percent! With water in the mountains we are sure to have a fantastic summer on the Salmon River Canyons!

This trip is our family favorite! If you have 12 or more friends and family members who would like an all-inclusive, exclusive trip give us a call. We will do charter trips for groups of 12-23 people. We still have some dates that we can arrange charters on. These dates span July, August, & September.
Nothing makes it feel more like spring than having the first big crew gathering of the year. Some years it is stocking shelves in Stanley, ID. Others, at the Idaho River Rendezvous. But this year it was at our Lolo, MT facility over this past weekend for our Wilderness Advanced First Aid course through Desert Mountain Medicine. We were fortunate enough to once again have the amazing Nadia Kimmel who came up from her home near the magnificent Teton Mountains, Snake river, and Jackson Area to help our crew get the most up to date information on wilderness medicine. She is truly a fine educator who perfectly facilitates DMM’s unparalleled scenario based curriculum. Big thanks to Nadia & DMM!
