River Wild! Check-in at Glacier
Raft Company in the Village of West Glacier ½ hour prior to trip
departure. Shuttle by bus to the Cascadilla Creek river access, 15 miles up
river. Trip starts with brief trip description and safety talk by guides. Float
through Nyack Flats of the middle
fork of the flathead river along the southern border of Glacier
National Park with views of the Nyack Coal Creek Wilderness area of Glacier
National Park where parts of The River Wild were filmed. Stop along
the river for a lunch break while your guides prepare a riverside BBQ lunch.
Standard lunch is western sirloin steaks (6 oz.), salads, veggies, dessert and
beverages. With advance notice, we can also have available boneless chicken
breasts or garden burgers. After lunch, the river takes you through the John
Stevens Canyon below Moccasin Creek that includes 9 named rapids, mostly Class
II and III whitewater (medium whitewater with numerous waves, narrow passages,
eddies and bends), including Tunnel and Jaws. Watch for our photographer at
Bonecrusher and be sure to view your digital photos after the trip! The trip
ends at the bridge in West Glacier where you will disembark from the raft with
a short walk back to our office, your car and dry clothes, and a chance to
purchase trip photos and souvenirs! |
Wear shoes and clothing you don't mind getting wet (swimsuit
or shorts and T-shirt in warm weather, fleece pullover in cool temperatures
avoid cotton) and have dry clothes in your car to change into after the
trip. Bring only waterproof disposable cameras and water in plastic bottles.
Wetsuits provided at no additional charge when weather or
water conditions require their use. Also available for rent for
$5, including booties. Booties available for rent for $3.
