MAIN SALMON RIVER 2010 Dates & Rates

  3 - Day Wilderness Camping Trips with Jet Boat back to Corn Creek

New for 2010
This is the perfect trip for those who do not have the time do a five day trip and still would like to experience a rafting trip down the Main Salmon river. This three day stretch of the Main Salmon is considered by most to be the best section of this river. Rapids like Salmon Falls, Big Mallard and Elkhorn are just some of the well know rapids along this section. There is Barth Hot Springs on day two and several other pioneer historical sites that we will stop at along the way.

This trip starts just like all our trips, only on the afternoon of day three our chartered jet-boat meets us on the river. Once we are all aboard we take about a 2 hour trip back up river to Corn Creek where it all started. On these trips a minimum of 6 Guests are required and the Max is 8. If you have more than 8 people in your group please call our office for more details and prices.
