2019

May 11-12 | Cottonwood to Starvation Lane| David, Chris, Tyler, Cory | 7340 | 84

Quick overnight trip to take advantage of early good weather. Flow was over 7000. River was muddy, fishing very slow. Camping was great. Take out is non-landable at this flow. Tyler over shot crashed landed 50 feet downstream in the trees. David tried and failed. Chris/Cory hiked across field to unload.

May 30 - June 3 | Clarno to Cottonwood | David, Steve S, George, Bob, Tyler and Andrew joined at 30 mile | 6000 | 82

First time running Clarno rapid. Was quite a ride at 6000. Most rocks covered, one big drop to deal with but made it through sideways. Fishing was slow but caught much bigger fish, including a 20". River is dangerous at this flow. Some unlucky canoe ended up pinned against the rocks that we had to rescue. Great group of guys to go with

June 14-16 | Thirtymile to Cottonwood | David, SteveE, Gary, Scott, Cory, Tyler and Andrew | 2100 | 86

Great trip, perfect weather, lots of fish. Steve's pontoon boat blew out a pontoon which made for some excitement. The party barge was a hit.
