Into The Wild

Travel deep into the heart of Idaho’s Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness, where you can feel the rush of whitewater as you sweep down Class II to Class IV rapids or float through gentle scenic stretches. Along the way there are plenty of opportunities to hike, fish, swim, and get close up to nature—maybe even take a dip in riverside hot springs!

What Our Guests Say

It’s true that our guests say it best! Here is one traveler’s experience on this trip: “Our family of six went rafting on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River with MT Sobek. Everything about it was superb! We loved, respected, and trusted the guides—and the food was exceptional.” – Joan W.

Wilderness Wonders

The river is the rushing rolling centerpiece on these trips, but there is much more to see in the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. Discover evidence of the Sheepeater Shoshone in pictographs and pit-dwelling depressions along the shore. Watch surrounding slopes for bighorn sheep and mountain goats and scan the shore for river otters, black bears and bird life. Relax in hot springs and hike to stunning waterfalls.

Family Friendly Adventure

This is a great trip for the whole family and we have a number of departures in July and August that are perfect for families with kids aged 7 and up. As well as fun days rafting on the river, there is plenty of time for games and enjoyable evenings at camp.
