Steve Opfer posted a blog postMF of the Salmon running very high right now, my trip might get cancelled.
Water flows & levels on the MF of the Salmon are running very high. I leave in 5 days and put in on the 3rd of July. The current trip only took 4 of 12 boaters who scheduled for the trip due to the high water. The entire 1st 25 miles are running as non-stop class IVs according to a guide report. I've invested so much cash, this could so suck. And Yes I've got trip insurance, but that doesn't change the suck quotent if this gets modified or cancelled.See More
