? Our group trips are a great chance to travel with others. We also recommend adding in a few extra nights tailor-made to ensure you build the perfect itinerary.

Explore gay Idaho, ideal for those who seek adventure and breathtaking views. This group trip is designed for all levels of experience rafting, and shows you the most beautiful parts of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness which is home to rugged mountains, deep canyons and, of course, the Middle Fork of the Salmon River which you will raft down. Enjoy adventure during the day before settling down each night and camping under the stars.

For those going on the June date, please note this means cooler weather. There’s a possibility of rain and even snow. These dates also bring higher waters, for faster and bigger rapids, for an exhilarating adventure.

For those going on the August date, this launch has warmer weather, slower water and calmer rapids. It’s also more Food and Wine focused than the June tour, with one less night camping on the river. Instead, you’ll enjoy your final night along the river at the Mackay Bar Guest Ranch before your flight back to Boise the following day.

Whilst LGBTQ+ rights vary from state to state in the USA, there are nationwide laws that protect members of the community from discrimination. Same-sex couples can also marry in the USA, and social attitudes are generally tolerant.

However, challenges persist, including opposition to transgender rights in some regions and ongoing debates over religious freedom versus anti-discrimination protections. Advocacy and legal battles continue to shape the landscape of LGBTQ+ rights across the United States.
