Lower Salmon River at Fall Creek

Known as the River of No Return, the Salmon is the longest undammed river in the contiguous US, dropping over 7,000 feet and flowing 425 miles, all within Idaho. I camped here as the spring runoff swelled the creeks into a raging confluence with the Salmon. I made camp on a large rock outcrop, just above this view. The force of the creek behind me transferred a constant, low vibration through the rock - it was magnificent to spend a few days experiencing the sensation.
