This free flowing springtime run is
California’s finest and most impressive whitewater canyon. Carving a
spectacular gorge through the remote and beautiful Salmon Mountains it has
appropriately earned National Wild River designation. This run provides superb
scenery with side creek waterfalls and thick forests between the wild rapids
Bloomer, Airplane, Cascade, Big Joe and Freight Train. This trip is challenging
and is recommended for the active, and adventurous guests looking for a real
whitewater experience.
This river isn't for the meek or mild
at heart. It's a terrific run for experienced paddlers thirsting
for a first-rate whitewater challenge.
