We are excited to feature the one and only Mike Hipsher as our Guide of the Month for May.
Mike has been running rivers for almost 50 years now, and running with Canyons on the Middle Fork and Main never gets old.
He likes the newness of spring and the high water that comes with it that freshens the river corridor annually from Boundary Creek to the confluence and downstream on the Main.
Mike lives and nordic skis on the snow in McCall and east of there in the winter just to keep track of the snowpack that our summer boating is based on.
Mike enjoys lots of different modes of transportation to see our Idaho wilderness – mtn biking, kayaking, rafting, hiking, skiing – even an occasional plane ride (but just a passenger, he’s not a pilot)
