Permit
A permit is required to travel down the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. Getting a permit is not very easy. There are seven launches a day. The person that is seeking to go must enter lottery control season. To become a permit holder you have to be 18 years old. The permit holder must work with a group to take care of the fees. The permit cannot be given to someone else, and the permit holder must be there at all times on the river. The permit holder must make sure that the rules, which are given by the Forest Service, are followed. An example would be that they must have a fire pan and port-a-potty. The normal season goes from the May 28 and goes to the 3 September. For the pre and the post season launches are first come first serve. You may also enlist the service of a professional guide service. Those permitted and licensed to operate commercial river trips can be found at the web site below –.
