Jet Boating Muskwa River

[msawyer]

Hello All...

Can anyone tell me how far up the Muskwa River jet boats can travel? Giving a lat/long or some other way to identify the spot would be helpful...

Thanks

She gets small at the top end. You won't be able to pick enough gas in your boat.

Like Ryanb has said, hauling enough fuel is the biggest problem.
I have had fuel dropped off for a minimal charge at the start of the Tuchodi.

Might be some good contacts on the river rats page

Yes, might be a specific one for fsj or Fort Nelson as well. But those guys run that stretch regularly. I tried in a big boat and its awesome but I prefer bigger water as my boat fairly heavy and 12° haul.

We had 6 barrels of gas plus both side tanks full on our trip this year and were 4.5 - 5hrs up river. Still came back with fuel to spare.

Any idea how many kilometres that is RR?

Looks like about 90km as the crow fly’s, but that river sure isn’t straight. If you haven’t been up there, it’s another great trip out back.
