Central Idaho Dark Sky Reserve
There are only 12 Dark Sky Reserves in the world and Central Idaho is the only one in the US. Here at Middle Fork Wilderness Outfitters we already know what that means. Your nights on the river explode with stars and oftentimes, when the weather is clear, you can fall asleep under the Milky Way which feels close enough to touch. Plan your trip for a full moon or no moon…whichever floats your boat, no pun intended. But one thing’s for sure – your Middle Fork wilderness experience will stay with you long after your trip has ended. Check out this video on Central Idaho’s Dark Sky Reserve
