Sweet Jan 11
Our first Salmon River Rafting trip was such a resounding success, we’re going to do it the same time in 2011! Pictures and guest reactions coming soon.
Join Sweet for a six-day rafting adventure on the Middle Fork of Idaho’s Salmon River, August 8-13, 2011.
It’s a feast for the senses:
SEE
A crystal-clear, free-flowing river, abundant wildlife and a starlit sky.
HEAR
The sounds of cascading whitewater, crackling campfires and the stillness of solitude.
SMELL
The fresh mountain air peppered by fragrant sage and pine mingling with the aroma of morning coffee.
TASTE
Fresh, plentiful, mouthwatering food prepared for you with many home-baked delights.
FEEL
The beauty of a pristine unspoiled wilderness, soothed by hot water springs and refreshed as the river lulls you to sleep.
DREAM
Follow your senses to this magical place of fiery dawns, a wild shining river and a mystical canyon. Slip away and join us for excitement and serenity and a memorable whitewater journey on Idaho’s Middle Fork of the Salmon River.
Get away from it all on the pristinely preserved Salmon River, where all motors are banned (that includes electric toothbrushes). We’ll wind our way down this gorgeous river in the second deepest canyon in the United States. Its remote location means it has been little changed by humans. Read the rest of this entry »

Join Sweet for an 11-day Peruvian adventure to Machu Picchu, July 21-31, 2011.
Immerse yourself in the myths, legends and history of the Inca. Start with a day in Cusco, one of the most beautiful towns in Peru and the southern capital of the Inca Empire. Then move on to the Sacred Valley of the Incas and explore this fertile valley lined with picturesque Andean markets, impressive churches and remarkable Inca ruins. Stop at Awanacancha to learn about the four types of Andean camelids and observe local artisans demonstrating traditional Andean weaving techniques. Visit the Inca ruins of Pisaq, bargain with local craftsmen in the town’s famous textile market, and visit a local ceramic artist’s studio. Walk through the rustic high Andean village community of Patakancha and spend some time with the local school children during a morning service project. Then, either take the train or hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu… the choice is yours! Arrive in awe at the perfectly preserved Inca citadel that was lost in the dense jungle for hundreds of years. 2011 marks the 100th anniversary of American historian and explorer Hiram Bingham’s discovery of Machu Picchu.
