Ride and raft the Flathead on this full day adventure! Start the day at Rawhide Trail Rides where you’ll meet your wrangler and trusty four-legged transportation for a 2-hour horseback ride on mountain trails with scenic views of Glacier National Park and the Flathead National Forest. Wear cowboy boots or light hiking boots with a heel and bring along a water bottle.

Brush off the trail dust, enjoy a leisurely lunch on your own, and trade in your saddles for paddles to continue your adventure for an afternoon whitewater trip.

Check-in at Glacier Raft Company in the Village of West Glacier ½ hour prior to trip departure. Shuttle by bus to Moccasin Creek river access, 8 miles up river. Trip starts with brief trip description and safety talk by guides. Raft through the John Stevens Canyon of the middle fork of the flathead river along the southern border of Glacier National Park. Trip 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.
