Shuttle Services
Blackadar Boating provides the very best shuttle service.
Please be sure that your vehicle and trailer tires, and their spares, are in good condition. Roads in Idaho's river country are subject to rock slides and are frequently covered with sharp rocks.
To be safe and legal, please be sure that all trailer lights and vehicle lights work properly.
