THE GEAR

Ready‑to‑run raft kit included

The rental comes with essential items—oars for propulsion, a cooler for provisions and a repair kit for on‑water fixes—so you launch with the basics covered and can focus on covering river miles.

THE ROUTE

Independent navigation of Idaho waterways

This is a self‑directed raft rental that emphasizes freedom on the water: you run the river under your own plan over the 14‑day rental period, shaping each day’s distance and pace.

THE TIMEFRAME

An extended, two‑week float

With a 14‑day rental window you can move steadily downstream, camp, and manage logistics at your own tempo rather than packing an abbreviated itinerary into a single weekend.
