SeptemberRiver Trips
September is one of our favorite months. The crowds thin out, the light turns gold, fishing picks up on the Rogue, and the lodge hikes are back on the trail.

Good to know
Fewer Crowds, Golden Light
Summer rafting runs well into September on the Rogue, the Salmon and in Hells Canyon, with quieter rivers and cooler nights. Fall is also prime time for fishing. Join a Briggs drift boat trip on the Rogue, or the 4-day lodge-to-lodge fishing trip.
The Hells Canyon Cast and Blast trip starts on the third Saturday in September, pairing fishing with hunting. The Rogue River Trail lodge hike and trail run return once the trail cools down.
Pack warm layers and rain gear for cool mornings.
