Why we love rafting the Salt.

Rafting season along the Salt River typically begins in early March 4th depending on rainfall.  Companies begin booking reservations and it’s always a good idea to get your reservation in early. We’ve listed the four rafting companies that work the Salt River every year and encourage you to check out their websites for more information. 

For more on this, see our article on Rafting the Salt River . 

And, here are the links to the rafting companies working the Salt River each year:
