The Salmon River's pool and drop style of white water sports dozens of class II and III rapids which make kayaking and paddle rafting an exhilarating experience.
Join Salmon River Dories on an October trip and spend five days, in the scenic fall solitude of the Lower Salmon River Canyons fishing for the world famous STEELHEAD trout.
Among them were runs of salmon and steelhead that probed restlessly as far as the young rivers would let them go, planting the seeds of new generations in the glacial gravel of the river bottoms.

The salmon spawning rivers and adjacent forests are undoubtedly important to wintering Bald Eagle populations in British Columbia.
American Rivers is also advocating the partial removal of four dams on the lower Snake River to prevent the extinction of Snake River salmon and steelhead runs.
