Hammer Down River Excursions: Boat Tours!!!
Hell's Canyon is a huge canyon located in Western Idaho. It has both the Salmon River and Snake River and covers over 652,000 acres. Seeing the beauty of this place was absolutely incredible on my recent post it note trip to Idaho. One of the best ways to see this portion of the canyon is by boat.
Hammer Down River Excursions offers just that. They offer two tours that covers not only the seeing the beauty of the canyon but they offer a history of the each one is different. The first is the Scenic River tour which covers 75 miles round trip and takes you from Pittsburg Landing to Historic Cache Creek Ranch. The second tour takes you from Pittsburg Landing up to the Hell's Canyon Dam which is in total of 65 miles round trip. The guides will provide the history about each stop and lunch is included as well. One of the best times of year to do this is in the summer as you will possibly get wet from the rapids. You will also want to make sure you have your camera ready as you may see a wide range of wildlife including elk, deer, ram, big horn sheep, bear, turkey, waterfowl, and various species of fish.
The boats you are on are jet boats and go about thirty to thirty five miles per hour. The views are awesome, the memories are made, and the history is very informative. If you are looking to add that summer travel destination to Idaho then make sure you book a scenic river tour with Hammer Down River Excursions in White Bird, ID. #ridingwithkurt #postit #hammerdownriverexcursions
