"I am not a camper in any sense of the word… but to drift along in this fashion… passing sandy beaches and on either side, the sharply creased mountain sides, fragrant with vanilla-scented ponderosa pines, was completely tranquilizing....It was true that the food was delicious, the amount of work expected from us nonexistent, the accommodations almost luxurious, the scenery unbelievable...."
Tama Janowitz - Bon Appetit Magazine
"White water and red wines are the stars of two expeditions... from Idaho's Salmon River Outfitters. Spend days shooting the rapids and nights sampling West Coast vintages with dinner."

MAIN FORK OF THE SALMON TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS
Pre- and post-float shuttle flights, lodging, etc.
All Salmon trips include transportation from Salmon, Idaho, to the riverside starting point. At the end of the trip, we return you to McCall, Idaho.
Driving
As a destination, choose Salmon -- our starting point -- or McCall, where the trip ends. You may leave your car in Salmon, and from McCall at the end of the trip take a spectacular charter flight over Idaho's Wilderness area back to Salmon (see charter flight services below). Or, you could leave your car in McCall and fly to Salmon to begin the trip. Also, we can arrange to have your car shuttled from Salmon to McCall while you're on the river.
Flying
Several commercial airlines fly to Boise, Idaho. From there you may take a beautiful charter flight over the headwaters of the Salmon River, following its flow to the town of Salmon. At the trip's end in McCall you may once again be flown back to Boise.
