The only downside (for some) to the Lower Salmon is the presence of power boats as you get near the confluence with the Snake River.
But in the meantime, it remains a beautiful, family-friendly trip with easy logistics. Bonus: You can float the Lower Salmon as a private boater with only a self-permit application acquired at the put-in. (Note: Some, but not all, links in this post are affiliate links.) With experienced rowers in the party, the Lower Salmon River is a great trip for kids- the camps are magicalĪnyone who runs the Lower Salmon falls in love with it, so it seems inevitable that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will start to restrict its use, as it’s already deemed suitable for future Wild and Scenic River designation. For many years, the Lower Salmon has been our crew’s go-to choice for an easygoing multi-day trip that rocks along but isn’t too spicy for intermediate rowers and kayakers.
Didn’t pull a permit for the Main or the Middle Fork of the Salmon? Dry your tears and set your sights on the free-flowing Lower Salmon-112 miles of fun whitewater, plentiful white sand beaches, and lively fishing.
