About Us...
Hello there! We are Shawn, Sandra, Jazlyn and Everett! As a family we run Idaho Adventures. We invite you into the fold, to feel the same sense of community that comes with intertwining your life with the river's, and to show you why we commit ourselves to such a fun way of living. We are so excited to share our love of nature and the river and only hope that we can pass that same love down to you. Everyone deserves to experience the adventure.
Everett was raised in the four corners area in Mancos CO. His family spent all of their free time dedicated to playing in the outdoors, specifically on the river. He rowed his first multi-day rig when he was 11 years old and has been paddling class III-V whitewater in a ducky since he was 5. His parents (both very competent, avid outdoorsmen/woman) made sure he knew how to survive, thrive and have fun outside. Their admiration and appreciation for the west and its rivers was passed down to Everett. His devotion to protect our rivers and share with anyone who will listen, just how special these places are, is what drives him. Jazlyn had a similar upbringing, with a family committed to spending their life outside. Her parents met working wilderness survival and were eager outdoor enthusiasts so Jaz spent her childhood wandering the deserts of Utah, and backcountry canoeing in the Teton wilderness. Her mom guided on the Colorado in the big water 80's and is Jazlyn's biggest inspiration. Jaz ran her first multi day on The Main Salmon at 10 years old and has been hooked ever since. Maybe it was their love for rafting or maybe it was the universe conspiring in their favor but Everett and Jazlyn were eventually brought together guiding and running the mighty Colorado out of Moab, UT. Naturally, these young river runners fell in love, and decided they needed to make a future for themselves. Sandra and Shawn, two of the most kind, generous, incredible human beings, Jazlyn's father and step-mom made this dream come true for all of us. Idaho Adventures has been a family run business since 1973 and we look forward to keeping it that way! Showing you just how remarkable our little town of Salmon Idaho is. We want to provide you all of the fun, excitement, and joy we know comes from living your life dedicated to nature and the outdoors.
The Salmon area is most known for The River Of No Return, with scenic floats, whitewater river trips, and world class fishing opportunities (both fly and spin fishing). In addition to the river, there are fabulous places to camp, ride horses, hike, soak in hot springs, and adventure out on the numerous off-road trails our mountains have to offer. The beauty here will knock your socks off and take your breath away, you just have to come experience it for yourself.
As you browse our website, you will notice the different rafting and fly fishing trips that are offered. We also rent equipment and do raft repairs! Please don't hesitate to email us with any questions you might have at [email protected] or give us a call at 208-756-2986. We look forward to hearing from you!
