Fished, Floated and Hiked - 100 Miles
from Stanley to Salmon Idaho
June 16 - 21
Awesome journey with great people! Mark, Coral, Carey, Anna, Jenna, Chris, Cathy, Marvin, Sue, Dave, Mark and Julie met up with the Helfrich Outfitter's crew for a 6 day adventure! Drift boat fly fishing, hiking, rapids, hot springs and great company! Each morning began with a breakfast before getting in our boats with a guide. Several of us hiked along the river in the mornings and caught up with our guides before lunch. We enjoyed several hot springs along the river with incredible views. Drift boat fly fishing was amazing. Great assistance from our guides enabled us to catch about 15 - 20 fish a day. Each couple had their own boat and guide. Each night we stopped at a campsite that was already set up for us by the amazing crew. Tents, cots, sleeping pads and a welcome mat outside our tent! Happy hour and appetizers were served before dinner. Dinners were out of this world with ribs, chicken, steak, fish, fresh breads, veggies all cooked on the campfire or in a dutch oven. We sat around the camp fire each night listening to Dave, Marvin and a crew member George play their guitars and sing. So relaxing and enjoyable.
