So Dave Stephan and I did what Chris Goble Suggested (thanks a million Chris) for our weekend paddle! The Wigwam River was a great river full of boulder gardens and tight constrictions between boulders to manouver through! a lot of fun! Even funner in play boats where we got thrown around quite a lot more than one would in a creek boat! We camped over night by the bridge of Lodgepole Creek on friday after setting up our shuttle. The shuttle is a big one, but well worth it. This is where we started our journey from Lodgepole Creek down to the Wigwam River. the Creek was a bit boney, but quite fun all the same! there was only about 2 trees we paddled under using our paddles to push away the branches. and 1 tree that we portaged. Wigwam was a great class III Class IV run! and the finish of the Elk River was great too! All in all it was a great day trip! We got in the water around 10:00 a.m. and got out of the river at about 3:00 p.m.

Enough time for a quick finish on the bull :)
I am currently looking at some spectaculr waterfalls and glacial creeks in iceland - too be a good paddler and have a boat.....
Tough to beat Iceland as an exotic locale but we're off to spend a week running the Middle Fork of the Salmon - finally got a permit in the lottery.
Enjoy,

Is there an experienced paddler out there that wouldn't mind taking out some beginners this Thursday (July 16) for an evening paddle?
anyone in for an ELK RIVER paddle on Saturday? contact me by texts/phone @ 403-894-7773.
