Description
Start your day on Montana time. This calm three-hour float puts you on the Flathead when it’s at its most peaceful, with the morning mist still hanging low and birds in full chorus. A hand-picked spread, warm drinks, and total privacy make it the best kind of wake-up call.
Your private guide welcomes you aboard a spacious raft set for up to six guests—no strangers, just your group and Montana’s morning stillness. With warm mugs in hand, you’ll drift downstream under open skies, where the soft rush of water and birdsong replaces alarms and hustle.
Breakfast floats with you. A curated spread of flaky pastries, ripe fruits, fresh-squeezed juice, and locally brewed coffee creates the perfect riverside brunch—served onboard and enjoyed at your pace. Prefer tea over coffee, or avoiding gluten? Your guide’s got it covered.
This isn’t just breakfast—it’s a sensory reset. Binoculars and guidebooks are on hand for spotting eagles, osprey, deer, or even the occasional otter. Meanwhile, your guide shares insights into the local ecosystem, pointing out flora, fauna, and hidden layers of Montana’s wild landscape.
The pace is slow, the views change minute by minute, and every moment feels just a little more alive. Whether it’s a romantic morning, a family outing, or a reset with friends, this float is designed to start your day with peace, beauty, and no rush at all.
