Day 14 - Blackadar
Today, June 13th, was a beautiful day for floating. Our spirts soared as we floated about 14 miles in sunshine and quick water. We are now at Blackadar Camp. Just a little brief history on Blackadar Camp, it was named after Doctor Walt Blackadar, a kayaking pioneer and well know physician in Salmon Idaho from 1950 until 1978.

The group is messhing well and a good game of bonji ball has already ensued. But reflecting on today's highlights I would certainly have to mention the leisurley lunch stop at Lance Bar, a beautiful beach complete with historic buildings and orchards to explore.
We are also looking forward to some rapids tomorrow which should be fairly exciting especially if the water levels keep dropping as they have been these last couple days.


All in all things are going well and everyone is healthy, happy, and very well fed. Takahito, a student from Japan, who is affected from polio, mentioned that although today was fun he wishes for more whitewater. All good things in all good times.
Until tomorrow, long live the HOGs and long run the river.
