Required a crossing of Pack Cr while hike scouting the lower 3 miles of Brushy Fk.
This was not the longest portage due to logs, but one of the most impressive for its' height. Good time to chat with your paddling pals.
More of the same on the Brushy Fk. Happy to meet our pals from the Lochsa on this trip.
One of the few drops that had logs that could be run, albeit with a bit of limbo action. Happy not to do yet another portage.
Taken from cliffside while hiking the lower 3 miles. This looked like a beauty and it was! One of the few on this run not blocked by logs.
HB flying into a landing pre scout yet another logjam just downstream!
Spent more time scouting and hiking around logjams than running the river. Lovely scenery however.
JCP coming into the parking space for another scout.
This is the bridge at the take-out. Scout from this side, just upstream from bridge to look at gauge rocks.
This baby elk was with mommy (couldn't get camera out in time for her) seen while we portaged a small logjam early in the run.
