Mountain River Packrafting Expedition [Video]
The Mountain River flows 230 miles through remote wilderness from its headwaters in the heart of the Mackenzie Mountains to it’s confluence with the Mackenzie River in Canada’s Northwest Territories. It is a fast moving river, dropping over 3900 feet, with plenty of large volume Class II and Class III rapids and running through six stunning canyons.
Many river guides consider this to be the most coveted wilderness whitewater trip in Canada.
We paddle 180 miles of the Mountain River in packrafts, and then continue another 45 miles down the Mackenzie River to the community of Fort Good Hope, NWT. Over our 15 day journey, we paddle through spectacular mountain scenery, hike up adjacent hills and meet the local wildlife.
