Trip Report

Most boaters know some of these rapids by their original names. Simple Simon is actually Eagle Rock to most of us. In very cold winters it is a gathering roost for bald eagles who move south to escape the weather. There are reports of over 7 adults at one time, though I have only seen four at the most.
What this site calls Scout's Honor has long been know as Surf City, a much more appropriate name and one that has stood the test of time.
Since the bed and river left bank are in my yard, I would appreciate using the names that have been in place for most of us locals since the 80's.
Thoughts?
