The South Fork of the Payette, where the full-day Canyon raft trip and the half-day Staircase raft trip are located, is fed from the bottom of the Deadwood reservoir, so it tends to be on the cooler side. The North Fork of the Payette, where the full-day Cabarton raft trip is located, is fed from the top of the Cascade Reservoir, so it tends to be a fair bit warmer. The half-day Main Payette raft trip  is a combination of these two forks so it’s somewhere in between. The water is always warmer in later summer months, whereas snow melt in the spring brings the overall water temp down a bit."
