The Middle Fork is the pinnacle of Rocky Mountain river trips. It really has it all: isolated wilderness, wildlife, and terrific whitewater. Some of the wildest whitewater starts right away in the upper reaches. In fact, some trips start 25 miles downriver from the main put-in if the river is too savage; or if a party that prefers to start off nice and easy. Never fear, you'll have more whitewater in the Impassable Canyon: so deemed by horseback riders, not boaters. The strict permit system keeps the river pristine.
