"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."

Wine Enthusiast Magazine, February, 1995
The idea of sipping wine on a luxury cruise ship is not new, but whitewater rafting while balancing a glass of Chardonnay in hand is catching on fast. Wine tasting is a big part of the fun on the rafting trips led by the Salmon River Outfitters down Idaho's Salmon River. Excursions are held during spring and summer, in addition to thematic charter trips; for example, like those led by winemakers or chefs. For information, contact Salmon River Outfitters. |
