The wilderness region along the Idaho – Oregon border is a wild clean natural landscape with little access except on foot, by horse or by river. There are few roads if any into the area with Idaho’s Wilderness Areas being some of the least accessible in the lower 48 states.

Filling up the HD screen in this show the X cams go wide to catch the feel of Hells Canyon, a gorge actually 2000 feet deeper than the Grand Canyon and most people have never heard of it! This remote canyon reaching almost to Hell itself has been cut deep by a river known as the Snake when the mountain landscape platau rose. The Snake River and is one of the longest and most remote rivers in the USA and XCTV was there.

The show opens up with Jason Lazo visiting the Salmon river side village of Whitebird Idaho pop.150. and meeting a few of the locals. Jason then drops down a dusty gravel road to Pittsburg Landing which is one of the few river access points in the Hells Canyon National Recreation area to meet with Eric Pardue from Killgore Adventures.

Killgore outfitters provide jet boat river tours as well as setting up hunting and fishing adventures on the Snake and Salmon Rivers. As eXpcted on XC the wild outdoor action takes off up river with Jason in a custom all aluminum Idaho made Bentz boat fitted with twin 350 V8s that can handle the powerful big river whitewater with thrilling ease!

It took wide lenses to capture the spectacular scenery of the canyon and Jason does a great job of action reporting from the rolling and pitching deck of the jet powered speed boat named Moonshine! See these shots and hear the engine powering up river rapids with names like Wild Sheep, Granite Creek and Green Room!

Music rolling the action from SubNoiZe band Mower. Hang on you don’t want to fall overboard! Great HD shots on board and looking down from overhead cliffs with not a building or sign of any civilization to be seen.

Cool smooth electro-psychadelic music from Maverick Records artist Paul Oakenfold with his song Time of Your Life! Nice.

This XC USA wilderness show continues with more shots from North Americas deepest river gorge splashing the screen with unmatched scenery to music from Bible belt Bloodshot Records band Ha Ha Tonka presented by RIVE promotions with scenes from their band video “St.Nick on The Fourth in a Fervor” mixing it up with scenes of crystal streams, jagged peaks and raft runners heading downstream on the Snake’s back! All American good times!

After that it’s about time to HOOK it UP with some Idaho style fishing on the Snake going for the big bottom dwelling STURGEON variety and Eric Pardue from Killgore Adventures knows just where to pull the boat over and cast the lines baited with 2 pound chunks of Salmon!

Great UW Xcam shots here of swimming Steelhead showing off. Music from David Huber doing Haida sets the UW mood.

Jason baits up a solid slab chunk of salmon belly on a no barb hook and casts into a 70 foot deep water hole behind a rock island in the river. As the Xcams rolled as if on cue Jason’s Ugly Stick gets yanked and his reel starts screaming as the battle commences Ernest Hemingway XC style!

Eric declares a sturgeon online and The J man who is a solid dude cranks and pulls with a sweat for more than an hour with the smart old fish leading Jason and the boat back down 2 sets of raging rapids before finally giving it up with a rise to the surface only to laugh at us after showing its monstrous size then turning and drag screech diving again deep into the river further working Jason into a full sweat!

For music here fish band artists The Dorados throw out their song “Hooked on Hookin Up” talking of the joys of hook and line living!. Finally after an epic struggle Jason’s muscle wins out and the big fish is pulled slowly ashore…and BIG it is! Eric calms the ocean size fish by flipping it over before measuring it with a full size carpenters tape measure! At nine feet and an estimated 250 lbs the catch is considered a rare Snake River Hog!

Xcorps TV promotes Catch and Release but before letting the strange and prehistoric Snake River fish go Jason talks with Eric about the Sturgeon fish, which is estimated at 100 plus years old! With a sore lip it swims back into the rivers deep depths to live a life under the rapids on a swirling river bottom leaving us with some breathtaking shots for our Xcorps audience!

Stay tuned for more wild outdoor action with a very unique look at a new way to surf the river Idaho style with bungee powered skim boarding from Banshee Riverboards based in Boise Idaho.

The great Snake River delivers some thrills here by its epic nature river force stretching out and loading up the giant rubber bands until the boarder lifts the skim board nose above the surface and taking off launching and skimming up river!

See local riders Rip N Tear along with Laguna Beach California world class skimmer Bill Bryan pulling smooth moves on the Snake! This is the last place we expected to see a local Cali surfer!

Banshee River boards are a new way to have fun on a river using bungee power and you see it first on Xcorps!

This big outdoor show wraps with Mower doing the tunes and another wild upriver jet boat ride with Jason on the Moonshine recapping this XCTV episodes wild adventures! Cool shots and sounds here of Snake River waves rolling over the windshield and into the cockpit of the jet boat.

After all it’s just another day on the Xcorps!
