A rare treat of summer downtime in the clear waters of the Salmon River at Fong Wah. It takes a high water year to have these flows in the second half of July when the water is warm and the sun is hot. This is a fun mystery move spot that's accessible only by paddling the Forks Run (which is runnable but bumpy in spots for a squirt boat when the mystery move spot is in).
