See also Idaho: the Whitewater State by Amaral. He advises: "For a movie, see Marilyn Monroe in 'River of No Return.'" I don't know about you, but I'm heading for the library to see if it's in their archives.
All boaters must have a permit. There are eight launches per day allowed on the Main Salmon during the controlled season - June 20 thru September 7 - and these are assigned through the 4 Rivers Lottery System
The minimum flow is something of a guess. 9000 cfs is about optimal.
