The Salmon River, Idaho

Thought I might post some photos of a trip I did a while back, cause it was an awesome trip...

During the summer after working in the Yukon I did a training trip with NOLS in Idaho canoeing on the Salmon River. We did two 7 day trips on the middle section, this is a fun and forgiving class 2 - 3+ run with stunning scenery. It was a supper fun group, heaps of food and even more beer and whiskey! heres a few photos...









We camped on sandy beaches every night - no need for a tent, just roll out your sleeping bag and sleep under the stars (it was a change from the Yukon thats for sure!)

I introduced sock restling and it was a big hit!






Our first trip involved bringing a metal detector in search of a $20G wedding ring, we found it too, plus some other treasures!




We finished the trip at these hot springs on the way back - one of the best Ive seen I reckon! the hot water is those waterfalls.

Hope you enjoyed the photos...
