- Arrive at Paddle Ridge in West Glacier at 8:30 a.m. - Your guides will load your dry bag onto the shuttle, which you’ll take upriver to the launch point — about a 20 to 30 minute drive. - At the launch point, the guides will rig the boats, give a safety orientation, equip you with gear, and get you on the water. - Spend the next few hours paddling down the river, taking in the grandeur that surrounds the Flathead River’s Middle Fork. (There are a few rapids along the way depending on where you put in, ranging from class II-IV.) - Pull over for lunch, stretch your legs and take a quick dip in the river if the day is hot. - After lunch, float alongside Glacier National Park, getting unique views and learning about the area from your guides as you paddle through rapids. - Arrive at the campsite with plenty of time to relax. Play on the beach or chat with new friends as the guides prepare a delicious dinner. - Drift off to sleep in your sleeping bags under the starry sky.
