Salmon, S. Fork

We put on the morning of July 8th, running the final mile and a half of the Secesh River down to the confluence, before starting down the South Fork Salmon.  We had 2 packrafts and 2 kayaks in our group.  The Krassel Gauge was at 3.2 when we launched, falling to 3.1 over the trip.  We spent 2 nights on the river, and our 3rd day was spend paddling the Main Salmon out to Carey Creek Boat Ramp.

The level was a good level for our mixed group.  Still plenty of water for the kayakers to be happy, but not so pushy the packrafts couldn't hit their lines.  We saw 3 other groups on our trip, 2 groups of Catarafts, and another group of kayakers, plus one solo kayaker that we saw come through during our scout of Elk Creek Rapid.
