Middle Fork of the Flathead River

The Middle Fork originates in the heart of the Bob Marshall Wilderness and flows northwesterly to form the southern border of Glacier National Park in northwest Montana. The Middle Fork offers a unique way to experience the Park's majestic beauty. By late July the rapids have moderated to fun-filled Class II-III.

The Middle Fork has excellent fishing with the unique Westslope cutthroat trout (a native fish of the Flathead River System) being the primary fish. The Flathead is one of the few fisheries for this type of fish. There are also some rainbow trout, lake trout, and whitefish in the rivers.

What to Bring:

Wear shoes and clothing you don't mind getting wet (swimsuit or shorts and T-shirt in warm weather, fleece pullover in cool temperatures - avoid cotton) and have dry clothes in your car to change into after the trip. Bring only waterproof disposable cameras and water in plastic bottles.

Wetsuits provided at no additional charge when weather or water conditions require their use. Also available for rent for $5, including booties. Booties available for rent for $3. (rates subject to change)

Waiver Required:

Before going on any river trip, each guest must read, understand, and sign our Liability Waiver. Parents or legal guardians must sign for any children.

River Rapid Class Rating System:

Class I -- Easy - Water with riffles and small waves and few obstructions that are easily missed.

Class II -- Novice - Straightforward rapids with wide, clear channels. Some maneuvering required. Rocks and medium waves are easily missed.

Class III -- Intermediate - Rapids with moderate, irregular waves that are difficult to avoid with tight passages, strong eddies and currents.

Class IV -- Advanced - Intense, predictable rapids requiring precise boat handling, with some unavoidable waves and tight passages.
