Designed for Comfort, Stability, and the River Ahead
At Mountain River Outfitters, our boats are chosen with intention. Idaho’s rivers demand equipment that performs reliably in changing conditions while keeping guests comfortable throughout the day. Our rafts are selected for their stability, durability, and ability to handle everything from exciting whitewater to long scenic floats.
Well-maintained and thoughtfully outfitted, our boats allow guests to feel confident on the water so they can focus on the experience, not the equipment.
Stern Mount "Paddle Boat"
A great way to get the most out of every wave on the river. Be part of the crew and grab a paddle to help maneuver our sporty 15 foot rafts. Your guide will instruct you on how and when to paddle as they sit on the rear of the raft with oars that give them plenty of control as you propel the boat through the crashing waves.
Center Frame "Oar Boat"
Our most popular and versatile raft. These 16-foot self-bailing boats offer a comfortable ride with plenty of excitement along the way. Your guide steers and controls the raft, so guests can sit back and enjoy the trip or paddle along if they’d like to help out. This raft can also be set up for fishing, making it a great option for anglers.
Inflatable Kayak "Duckie"
1 or 2 person kayaks let you challenge the river on your own. Enjoy the solitude of floating alone, many guests enjoy reclining between rapids and gazing at the spectacular scenery. Don't worry if you have not had kayaking experience our guides will assist you on what to do and give you basic paddle skills needed to adventure behind one of the guided boats through the whitewater. Inflatable kayaks are available for everyone on all of our trips so you can take turns enjoying the ride. For the best raft trip we recommend you request a kayak for yourself or family if this is your preferred craft for your adventure.
Stand Up Paddle Board "SUP"
Stand Up Paddle Boards are becoming everyone's favorite. MRO has been providing our guests this great new option for several years, are guides will help you learn how to paddle around in the calm water around camp our show you how to navigate small to medium sized rapids with ease. These are also great for fishing around camp or just relaxing on as you admire the setting sun.
The Gear Boat
The best multi-day raft trip in Idaho is accomplished by the use of gear boats to bring a higher level of overall trip quality to our clients. Because of our system you will have more river time, this includes extra stops for hiking, history, fun and games. This allows our guest boats to stay open and free of clutter for a much better ride and a more spacious feeling. Each morning the supply boat is loaded with camp gear, and one of the guides takes the boat to our next camp. Upon your arrival, the gear boat has already set up your tents in a nice shaded area.
