River Description

The Little Salmon is a roadside whitewater run. The put in is at the first of four large waterfalls. All four waterfalls are runnable but the first drop can damage boats. The majority of the run consists of small boulder pile and ledge drops. Each of the waterfalls presents a different challenge and some can hide strainers and submerged rocks. On one run a kayaker and canoer both disappeared for more than five seconds in the hole at the base of the third drop but emerged unscathed. Unlike many whitewater runs in Idaho the Little Salmon is probably safer and more runnable at medium flow.
