How is the water clarity and flow this time of year, have things cleared up at all? And how is the river for obstructions and obstacles to avoid?
Any help would be appreciated. Thx

I don't have any current info, but we did float it a few years back before the flood. I believe the water is a little higher and more stained than usual right now. We used to take out on RR 205, but I know the flood did take some of this road out, and Im not sure if this still a good take out or not. The only obstructions we saw then were the odd log jam or overhanging branches, but you could see them long before you got to them. There were some very nice runs on this stretch of river, we did not catch any Browns but lots of Rockies.
Only managed to find 1 pic from back then
