Missoula Rafting in September

 Missoula Rafting in September offers a whole variety of river adventures to choose from.  Cooler nights and early mornings along with warm sunny day, bring more opportunity for wildlife viewing and fewer boats on the river. At Montana River Guides we continue to offer Montana Whitewater Rafting Trips on the Alberton Gorge, one of Montana's most beautiful river canyons with fun family whitewater. Our daily whitewater trip meets at 10am, includes a picnic lunch and an 11 mile float through the Gorge with stops along the way for cliff jumping and swimming.
