Climb aboard the charming historic vessel Sinopah, built in 1926, the oldest wooden boat in our fleet. Relax and enjoy all this “secret” valley offers, take in the scenery of Sinopah and Rising Wolf mountains while learning about the rich Blackfeet tribal history surrounding the Two Medicine area. Upon docking at the head of the lake you can choose to remain on the boat or disembark and begin a self-guided hike or hike with one of our guides to Twin Falls and catch a later return boat.
