Thompson

I drove past Nicomen a few days ago. The put-in at Nicomen is a construction site. There are plenty of other options upstream - as far as Spences Bridge for a long paddle. It also looks like you can head East (away from the river) 1/4 mile, park, and walk down the Nicomen to the Thompson.

Megi flew up for a couple days of boating and we joined Dirk for some fun boating on the Thompson. We drove up to the put-in and began our run, slowly forming a group with others as we made our way downstream. We met Peter Spear and Claudia Schwab who gave us the beta on upcoming drops and helped with the rescue when Megi swam at the Cutting Board. We all camped together at the Stein that evening and the next day ran a shuttle with Peter and Claudia for our trip the next day. It was a great level and we had fun on the Frog and at the other features along the way. The flow was 390 cms.

Megi was in town for a whitewater adventure to Canada. We ran the Nahatlatch, camped overnight and drove up the Thompson River canyon on our way to the Adams River and then the Clearwater. On this day it was approximately 40,000 cfs.
