About Sawtooth Adventure Company
Sawtooth Adventure Company is a premier outdoor adventure outfitter based in Stanley, Idaho, serving the greater Sun Valley region since 2001. Founded by Jared and Roni Hopkinson, the company operates from the gateway to the Sawtooth Wilderness and Frank Church–River of No Return Wilderness, two of the most pristine backcountry areas in the lower 48 states. Their location along the Salmon River gives guests direct access to world-class whitewater and some of Idaho's most dramatic mountain scenery.
SAC offers an impressive range of guided adventures including half-day and full-day whitewater rafting trips on the Salmon River, inflatable kayaking, multi-day wilderness river expeditions on the Middle Fork, guided fly fishing on the Salmon and its tributaries, stand-up paddleboard rentals on Redfish Lake, and mountain biking excursions through the Sawtooth Valley. They also operate Stanley's only fly shop, stocked with gear, flies, and local knowledge for anglers of all levels.
What sets Sawtooth Adventure Company apart is their deep roots in the Stanley community and encyclopedic knowledge of the surrounding wilderness. Their guides are seasoned river runners and outdoorspeople who grew up exploring these mountains and rivers. Whether you're looking for a mellow scenic float suitable for young children or a multi-day expedition into Idaho's backcountry, SAC delivers an authentic, safety-focused experience that keeps visitors coming back year after year.
