    This trip is incredible!!! I went down the Middle Fork of the Salmon with Idaho River Journeys in…read moreJune 2015. Here are a few reasons why I recommend these guys. The guides were awesome: We were lead down the river by Skip, Nate, and Duncan. They were all knowledgable, enthusiastic, hard working, had a great sense of humor, and made this one of the best trips I've ever been on. Thanks guys! The food was impeccable: My trip was 4 days (3 nights). We had BBQ chicken, salmon cooked on cedar planks, and filet mignon. The food was abundant and Skip cooked all the meats to perfection. We always had fresh coffee in the mornings, homemade cookies with our lunches, and beer and wine at night. This was not the normal camping diet that I'm used to; definitely exceeded my expectations. High quality supplies: The boats were all in great condition. We took two large rafts and 5 inflatable kayaks. The tents were in great condition and the sleeping bags were clean and warm. I could honestly keep typing for days about all the wonderful aspects of this trip and the guides that we went with. I will definitely use Idaho Rafting Journeys again for future trips.

    I was on the second trip of the 2017 season with a large group and ages ranging from 12 to 80!…read moreThis in itself is a challenging task, then add the highest river for many years and it's looking like a daunting task. Nothing could have been further from our minds because of the total professionalism from everyone in the Idaho River Journeys company from beginning to end. We all had a incredible trip on the Middle Fork with our guides who are perfect ambassadors for the region and really wonderful people to send time with. I and many on the trip will be back on the magnificent Middle Fork and we will without question be back on the river with Idaho River Journeys. Thank you. Sean

    We stopped in to Butte on our cross country drive and visited the mining museum after lunch in…read moretown. They offer military and other discounts on their entrance fee The gift shop area includes information on local, current mining operations as well as merch. This is an outdoor museum so dress for the weather. If you want to take the under ground tour be sure you are wearing closed toed shoes. (Crocs not included, I don't know why) They also have above ground tours. Part of the property is set up like a western town. Something that would grow up around a mine. Post office, apothecary, carpenter, blacksmith, etc, etc. All these buildings are set up with window displays but most are not open to the public. You just peer thru the windows. There is a memorial garden to miners. A mine yard with pieces of heavy equipment. The motorized lift, miners locker room, light room, information and equipment used in dry and wet boring, 3D representations of mines and more with information posted on the displays. You can walk up into the mine head if you are so inclined to see how the ore chutes operated. We spent about two hours here without realizing it. Very interesting museum. Staff are very personable, answered questions and suggested reading material for more on the subject. Very good, family friendly stop.

    I came here right after the Visitor Center changed their hours, so the official NPS website didn't…read morereflect the new hours. The change was apparently posted to their Facebook page a few days before though. And so I arrived to a closed Visitor Center. It seemed like I wasn't the only one, as there were a handful of other cars that pulled up into the parking lot. Oh well. I went on the Siege Area Trail which is 1.2 miles round trip. The trailhead has an interpretive brochure that explains points of interest on the trail, which made it easy to picture the events that occurred during the battle. For some reason, I couldn't see or missed some numbered stops on the trail, so it was somewhat confusing. Maybe the trail needs some updating to make them more visible? Overall, this is a somber visit to a battlefield that was not mentioned in my school textbooks. It's a reminder that we should not forget history.

Unfortunately it was snowing on the day we visited (yes, in May!) So we couldn't really see the battefield, nor walk around outside. The visitor's center is very informative though and there's even a 20 min film you can watch to learn about the history of the attacks. Highly recommend stopping by if you're into history or national parks. Don't forget your NPS passport book!

    My trip was in June 2012 I've done two multi day trips down…read morethe Grand Canyon and wanted to try another famous float. I'm glad I picked Middle Fork Rapid Transit and The Middle Fork river. Great food and great guides. One of the owners (Grant) came along for the first two days of the trip before flying out. Grant often answered the phone and answered all my questions. This is the only river they do and being family owned, is what helped sell me on rafting with them. They even accomdated my camper that I needed to plug in for the week I was gone so the batteries would stay charged. They also offer a discount on return customers. One old timer on our trip came back just about every year. .

    WOW! What a fabulous trip! We had heard that this would be a fantastic experience, but everything…read moreway exceeded our expectations. The crew was so friendly, knowledgeable, skilled, and went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. We had beautiful trombone music in the evening and again in the morning, signaling breakfast. The food? Well, suffice it to say, I actually gained 2 lbs! Gourmet food...delicious! Everything was so well organized and easy. The people we traveled with have become lifelong friends now. The Middle Fork? Gorgeous, breathtaking...and the guides knew stories and geological information that was really interesting and educational as well. Tim & I highly recommend this trip. You'll love it!!!
