29 - 5/8/2011 - Green River Gorge

Because it was Mother's Day, a couple of my friends had to be home early, but still wanted to boat. The Gorge was running around 1700 (plus rain), which is a perfect IK flow. So, we planned to meet early with boats rigged and hit the put-in ready to go. We used a fishing access put-in that is close to the river and we used my trailer to haul the boats already rigged.

We got going, and with only one short break for a flip, we made great time. We were off the river by noon and heading home.

Sadly, a couple of our friends didn't get to boat that day. They showed up at the upper put-in, but nobody else came to boat that day. They knew we were boating, but we hadn't contacted them because of our schedule. I really don't like these "exclusive" trips, but they are part of boating.
