The base is located right on the Salmon River, just 35 miles from the town of Salmon, Idaho. Your adventure includes two and a half days of pure excitement set in beautiful and remote mountains, far away from civilization. Trained and experienced guides take you safely through turbulent eddies, roaring holes, and crashing white water. As you travel down the Salmon River in rafts and kayaks, the mountains and cliffs tower over you, offering an experience you will always treasure. The evenings are filled with other activities, including archery, gold mine tours, campfires, rappelling, and even an Honor Trail. The Whitewater Merit Badge is offered.  The C.O.P.E. Course offers exciting challenges and obstacles for everyone to try.

Don't worry about the food, it is provided and cooked for you at base camp. Lodging is provided in teepees and tents, but you must bring your own bedding. All river equipment is also provided.
