Lewis and Clark Expeditions

Image: floating the Smith River Montana

Floating the Smith river with the Lewis and Clark Expeditions is a trip of a life time,it is a 60 mile float and camping with flair. A leisurely float thru limestone canyon walls that at times rise 1000 feet straight to the sky, with large wild trout ready to take your fly at any moment. The guides are top notch and have been floating the river for years. The meals are wonderful, hor d"oeuvres and cocktails are at the ready at the end of a great day fishing.

Please try and book as early as possible, these trips are seasonal (spring and early summer).This is a true Montana experience, camping on the side of the river with all the comforts of home, a "don't miss" trip! Please call or e-mail for brochures and more information.
