Backpacking 30 miles in Hells Canyon on the Idaho/Oregon Border! I get dropped off by jet boat on the Snake River and spend the next 3 days hiking out. Hells Canyon is North America's deepest river gorge, even deeper than the Grand Canyon. It's a rugged and rocky hike through a desert landscape. There are numerous historic sites along the way, remnants from the wild west. Some like Kirkwood Ranch and Sheep Creek Ranch are still in use. For many stretches you're on the side of an exposed canyon wall. It's not for everyone, which is my favorite part about this hike.
