Day Three of our White-Water Rafting Trip on the Lower Salmon River:
Not many critters spotted today: a duck, some other small birds and a praying mantis that hitched a ride on Scott's hat.
Not as many rapids today, but we went through Snow Hole Rapid, the only Class IV on this stretch of the river. We scouted it first, which made it scarier.
We saw the remnants of some old Chinese stone houses on the trail to scout China Rapid. They were very cool.
Tonight, we camped in Blue Canyon. It's really pretty here, the river is really swift and there are lots of rocks on the beach. I've already got a pile of souvenirs. :-)
Today was much hotter and we had that stupid up river wind again. It was nice to make camp & relax. Dinner tonight is steak, garlic mashed potatoes, and salad with apple vinaigrette dressing.
