Lodging

On Saturday, the day of your arrival to camp, you will be greeted by Rus and his crew, who will carry your bags up the hill to the camp, and get you settled into your tent.

After organizing your gear, a quick snack and an orientation talk, the guides will have you suit up and walk down to the river for your first experience on this phenomenal fishery.

The camp is located on a hillside high above the river, with a spectacular view of the river valley in one direction, the ocean in the other, and everywhere the massive coastal range, replete with glaciers, waterfalls and awe-inspiring vistas. Each two people share a roomy tent (the camp holds 9 anglers, so each week one person will have a private tent), and meet for delicious meals in the cook tent. There is a limited open bar, and plenty of beer and sodas cooling in the cold natural spring adjacent to camp. The camp is cleaned daily, and kept as spotless as a tent camp can be. All bedding is supplied (cots and lined sleeping bags), there are hangars to put shirts and jackets onto, large snap-lock waterproof containers to organize the rest of your clothing into, dry mats on the floor, and a nightstand with lighting next to your pillow. Everything is clean, comfortable, and well thought-out. The hot water shower and sink facilities are roomy and convenient, and bathrooms are outhouses located on trails well away from camp.

The food here is beyond the normal plentiful camp grub; Rus brings in a professional chef to make sure the meals, breads and desserts are homemade at the camp, and memorable. Expect wonderful appetizers each day after fishing, then an hour to relax and/or take a hot shower before the real eating begins!
