We can also offer Lodge Trips or combination Camp/Lodge Trips for those that aren't quite ready to rough it. Fresh, Healthy, Delicious Food

For those flying to Idaho, we ask that passengers come with one medium or two small bags up to 35 lbs total weight. Optional Deluxe Camping Package

This package includes a six foot tall tent, two cots, two sleeping bags, and two sleeping pads. It is available for $100 per package and has limited availability. Please request it on your Trip Registration form. Packing
Your Waterproof Bag The bag, when fully packed, measures about 17 inches in diameter by 32 inches in height and is almost the size of a garbage bag. Your sleeping bag, pad, and personal items must fit into this bag. Day Bags Since your waterproof bag will not be accessible during the day, personal waterproof 'day bags' for day use items such as sunscreen, small cameras, rainwear, or sweater will be provided. Clothing and comfort
Dressing safely and comfortably (not to mention fashionably) for river trips is a challenging task. It is very important and should not be taken lightly. For much of the season, you will need two sets of warm clothing: one for on the river and one for in camp. Use the layering system

Bring clothes that can be worn under or on top of others. Layering allows you to adjust quickly to changeable weather by adding or subtracting layers. Loose, fast drying, durable clothing is best for rafting. We recommend the following materials because they are compact and made to keep you warm and comfortable through a range of temperatures. Polypropylene (Polypro) or capilene are synthetic materials that wick the moisture away from the skin. Long underwear (shirt and pants) are essential as the first layer in cool or wet weather. Fleece is a synthetic material that is heavier than polypro. It makes an excellent middle layer in cool or wet weather. Wool is also a good insulator. Bring a jacket or sweater as well as pants of these fabrics. Cotton should NOT be worn during cool or wet weather since wet cotton lowers body temperature. Cotton is recommended for hot weather only! Rainwear
Rain jacket and pants are to protect you from the wind and spray from the rapids as well as from storms. Coated nylon or breathable fabrics such as Gore-Tex are best. Ponchos are bulky and dangerous so they are not recommended. Wetsuits
These are recommended and sometimes required for spring trips and for those interested in spending much of their time in an inflatable kayak. The 1/8 inch farmer john style is the most comfortable and can be worn with a rain jacket or paddling jacket. A long sleeved top of polypro or fleece adds needed warmth. A wool cap and gloves also help. Wetsuits will be available at the orientation meeting at no charge when required or recommended. Footwear

You will find guides and fellow guests in tennis shoes, wetsuit booties with soles, and river sandals. Closed shoes do offer the most foot protection while on the river and, if worn with wool or neoprene wetsuit socks, they can help insulate your feet when the water is cold.
