Paddling on the Henrys Fork Of The Snake River

Henrys Fork of the Snake river - The Henrys fork of the snake is a pristine wilderness day run with runnable drops ranging from a few feet to almost eighty! The first section above the upper falls is mostly class 3+ boating. A few small rapids and four distinct drops that are all easily portaged make up this section. The upper falls are not runnable and over 100 feet tall! Takeout river left above the falls. To continue downstream you must hike around the falls on a small trail found at the far side of the viewing platform. Have one person take this trail to river level and then hike upstream to just below the upper falls. (you will get wet) Once someone is at the bottom of the upper falls, lower kayaks from the viewing platform and have the remainder of the group begin the short but arduous hike around the falls! From here you can run the middle and lower falls.
