L-DUB Rafting

It was a cold day in Underwood, WA. home of the famous Little White Salmon. These pristin waters were flow'n quite low and with the wind blowing and the air around 20 F. Dan and I showed up thinking no one else was dumb enough to go kayaking today. At the put-in we found two more Dan's that thought today was a good day to go rafting... These guys are part of ORT (Oregon Rafting Team) have been chalking up First D's via the rubber boat riding all around the Pac. NW. I wasn't sure who was more despite that day...

The rafters tiring to stay busy in gettin' busy

A lot of times Plan A turned to B, C,

Dan's wearing matching outfits, charging over Boulder Sluice..

The guide book cover: S-Turn... Looks like these guys forgot the #1 rule in rafting Tame Your T... hahaha

Scenic view point I guess..

Big boat- little gap was the theme of this winter day

Wishbone falls is the entry to squeezes though a series of drops that ends at Horseshoe.. Here one of the Dan's forgets to grab his favorite line and is about get some downtime.

Tiring to feel at home in the gorge
