The Upper, South Fork of the Snake

From the Irwin access, the river opens up as it meanders through Swan Valley. The side channels and the shallow riffles offer excellent wading opportunities and some of the best dry fly fishing on the river.
 
The Canyon, South Fork of the Snake
 
"The Canyon" is considered the section of the South Fork beginning at the Conant Valley boat access to the Byington boat access.
 
There are two public access in the canyon section Cottonwood and Wolf. The float from Conant to Cottonwood is about 15 miles so once you're in the canyon, you're in. The upper canyon has no other access. Natural Retreats Outfitters Snake River is able to offer guests a private access about 12 miles down from the Conant boat ramp so your day in the canyon is not rushed and you can experience some of the most beautiful country East Idaho has to offer.
