Fisherman's DreamThe Bighorn Crags are a fisherman's dream. This vast rugged area containing more than forty high mountain lakes, rises from 3,500' on the canyon bottoms of the famous Salmon and Middle Fork Rivers to over 10,000' on Mt. McGuire. Rainbows, cutthroats, graylings, and brook trout as well as the illusive golden trout abound in this area. You may plan a four to ten day trip for either fly or spin-cast fishing. Combine it with horseback riding and eating out under the stars for a vacation to be long remembered.

Special arrangements can be made for a combination; horse pack trip and white water float trip on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River.

Spot Pack - Gear Drop

We pack in your equipment and supplies to the wilderness site of your choice. Then on a prearranged date we will return to meet you and bring you and your gear back to the Bighorn Crags trailhead. We limit our spot packs to a distance we can reach and return from in one day. If a more remote destination is requested the rate will be adjusted accordingly. We will customize to meet your needs and desires.
