THE CAMP

Top‑notch glamping and full provisioning

Comfort is a focus: accommodations, camp equipment and all fishing gear are provided and set up by the team prior to arrival, and meals and an open bar are included to keep the focus on relaxation and the river.

THE RIVER

High-energy river runs at Rainey Falls

On-river action includes back bouncing at Rainey Falls with four boats and the locally notorious “wall of death,” a highlight of the trip’s boating and fishing program.

THE GATHERING

Campfire storytelling with fishing stars and bold flavors

Evenings center on a campfire circle where guests trade stories with featured river personalities; meals emphasize craft lunches, Opies smokehouse meats and a reception BBQ with hot tub and open bar to set the tone.
