Salmon River

Floated 100 miles on the Salmon River in Idaho - there were several fires near the river and lots of smoke most days - made for some interesting photo opportunities.  We got pretty close to one of the fires the first day in this picture.
thought this sap was cool looking
Great view of a new fire one evening

Floating into a new fire on the first day
Bennatts heading down brand new Black Canyon rapid
Floating into the unknown abyss

This is actually the sun around 10 am .. the smoke was THICK
Saw this planning buzzing along the south Fork Salmon during a hik


Looking down towards Mackay Bar
I tried the hula - hoop at Mackay Bar but it was not pretty...

Another smoky day
