Brownwater Adventures
Nice mornin' fer a float, aye matey?
Consider the south fork of the Palouse River, bagged and tagged.
That's the best boat dog ever made.
Highlights: Finally running "the falls" at Reaney park and the Grange. Two portages on a five hour tour from the Pullman movie theaters to Parvin. One at an illegal fence (if you count hanging a 5ft metal fence all the way across a river hung by 10 or so 3/8" cables from the county road bridge guard rail with a bunch of wood snagged in it as an illegal fence). To make it interesting, it is at a pretty swift and deep place to try a pull out. Only side left has a place to stand big enough to pass the boats over the fence. Once step from shore has no bottom. The second is at a huge log jam on a railroad trestle above Albion from the previous flooding. Lots of trees and log jams you could just squeak by. Great wildlife day; including Beavers, Otters, Muskrat, Mink, Night Heron. Riley needing to be on the lead boat.
