Just finished my third Canyons trip and can't say enough good about this incredible company and the culture Greg has created! The guides are incredible humans who practice radical hospitality. There is a watercraft option for every level, and the food is unbelievably delicious. I appreciate that Canyons is a welcoming and inclusive outfitter for the LGBTQ+ community.

Canyons and their river guides are world class river runners. They hosted an LGBTQAI+ adventure for Gay Pride and it was a spectacular experience!

Had a fantastic six days on the Middle Fork of the Salmon with the Canyons crew. We'd do it all again in a heartbeat. The guides were warm, genuine and professional. Safety was always foremost on the river. Then we all had a blast getting wet and wild! Once we were in camp they put out a great spread complete with apps, drinks, amazing entrees and sinful deserts. Breakfasts were hot, satisfying, and done to order. The Frank Church Wilderness is the amazing backdrop on which our adventure played out. Don't hesitate - just do it!
