Idaho

The topography and lack of dams* has made Idaho the best state in the country for multi-day rafting trips. Middle Fork of the Salmon, Selway, Main Salmon, Hells Canyon seem to be high on every boaters must-see list and they all live in Idaho. Don’t get me wrong though, there are excellent day trips in Idaho, but their multi-days is what makes it more famous than their potatoes.

*There’s more work to be done.
