The Raging Elk River is a large to medium volume river and is a great white water run at low water. The best time to go is early May, July, August & September. You will first take a short bus trip to the put-in spot, gear up and then hike a short 10 minute walk down to the river. A brief course is given, for safety reasons, and then the fun begins.
The Elk River Canyon carves its way inside a gorgeous 400ft vertical wall with caves, hoodoos and some of the most breathtaking scenery. This trip has a really remote feel since there are no motorboats allowed and no road access to the canyon. In the distance you will see snow capped mountains, even in late summer, and tons of wildlife.
