The Salmon Canyon has one of the world's highest concentrations of raptors. The area's backcountry history includes tales of the Nez Perce War, long abandoned homesteads, and Chinese miners. The country is amazing. Hells Canyon offers more American Indian and pioneer historic sites than any other river in the region, including abandoned homesteads, pictographs, house pits, and petroglyphs. Snake River white water is big and powerful and includes the well known Wild Sheep and Granite rapids.
Fishing is excellent and varied.
We spot an array of wildlife, song birds, and birds of prey. 3 and 5 day trips during May through September. Juniper trees lean over the rafts as we float between towering basalt-rhyolite cliffs. Canyon walls rise up to 1500 feet above the river. The Bruneau is a first class white water trip.
