Rafting the Payette

I'll be taking a scenic, hopefully wild and VERY wet rafting trip down the South Fork of the Payette this Saturday!

I've been rafting a few times-- and every time it's an entirely new adventure and experience.

This trip, I booked through a company called Idaho Whitewater Unltd.

The woman I spoke to on the phone when I called six times in one day was so helpful, enthusiastic and genuinely nice-- that I didn't even call any other places.

I chose the float and day around the people that are joining me.  There will be eight of us in the raft -- that is maximum capacity for this particular company. 

We will be taking on level 3+ rapids on a half-day trip called 'The Staircase' ... VERY reasonably priced-- and I've heard nothing but great things about this section of the river!

I'll post pictures-- and details about my trip coming up this weekend! 

You can find some scenic pictures from my last rafting trip below... We floated the Salmon River last September.

Always,

Let the adventure begin!

Welcome to my travel blog!

 

I love to get away, get out of town-- whether it's a day trip to a lake, an hour long drive through the Mountains of Southern Idaho, or a weeklong excursion to Glacier National Park, Montana...

I'm taking my love of exploring-- and trying to new things to a whole new level... in hopes of giving you ideas of places you might like to go -- and things to check out along the way.

This blog will detail my adventures, introduce you to new friends, as well as critique businesses.

I invite you to come along on my journey-- and join me often!

Safe travels,

Kels
