The best part about the Snake River is you do not have to be an adrenaline-junkie to enjoy yourself.

One of the really great things to do is take a dinner cruise or a scenic cruise with 1000 Springs Tours.  You will see amazing things – Blueheart Springs where you actually gaze at the bottom of the river and it is true to its name- Blue!  You will see birds, wildlife, and scenery – some of the best South Central Idaho has to offer.  Experience dining on the mighty Snake – take a dinner cruise…you will be dining on truly yummy food prepared and served by Kirt Martin of the Snake River Grill – in Hagerman. Make a weekend of it and stay at Hagerman Valley Inn…right next door to the Grill!  And while you are in Hagerman, explore Thousand Springs State Park - there are nine units of this park; you can see and do amazing things.  Get a taste of the Hagerman Valley right now by viewing our TravelCast

It is Spring and the water is flowing!!!

The Murtaugh Section is scheduled to be a approximately 6000 cfs beginning this weekend – April 18.

This is one of the best whitewater trips in the U.S. and is a spring-only trip.  Inconsistent flows make running the Murtaugh Stretch  a “get-it” now opportunity.  Idaho Guide Service is the experienced outfitter and guide for your trip.  Schedule now – we have about a 30 day window…it may last longer - that is up to Mother Nature.  The Murtaugh stretch is a strong Class 4+ – 5 section.  There are 16 major rapids in 14 miles; the Snake River at this point drops an impressive 25ft per mile.  Minimum age for this trip is 16 and previous whitewater or a go-for-it attitude is required.

 Also Shoshone Falls is running at about 5000 cfs.  Plan your trip to Twin Falls to see the  “The Falls.”  today.  If you need more information about what is going on click here!

 We’ll see you soon – Happy Spring!!!

It is beginning to look alot like spring!  It is sunny today and maybe it is time to put away the winter stuff and lighten up for spring!

Over the weekend, the neighborhoods were full of spring noise….lawn mowers, trimmers and people clearing away winter – making room for a new season.  The trees are starting to bud out and the daffodils are blooming….what a welcome sight!

It  must be spring because we are starting to field lots of calls as to whether Shoshone Falls is flowing.  The north face is covered- similar to the picture.  However….the “Falls” as we affectionately call this area is home to two parks in one.  Dierkes Lake has a great trail back to the Hidden Lakes….you can fish and there is a picnic shelter.  Shoshone Falls proper has an area to launch your boat and if you are brave enough to ski this early – go for it!  The Centennial Trail is a 1.4 mile paved  trail and will take you along the canyon to the top of the rim.    On a clear day you can see forever…it is a great view of the Snake River and the surrounding landscape…plus it is just fun to walk the trail on a spring day.You can view the Evel Knievel launch site from the Centennial Trail – remember it is on private property – please respect this!

You can plan to play with us this year by viewing the Travel Casts for the area – this will give you a taste of what there is to see and do! 

 Happy Spring – be safe and we’ll see you soon in Southern Idaho
