Questions that Zach covered in the Q&A section of this episode

Topic: Illinois River Flow Prediction

Do you have a video detailing what you look at guesstimating flows on the Illinois River a week out?

  • Illinois River Flow

Topic: Rogue Trip

Hey I'm planning on doing another packraft trip on the Rogue this January. I already have a dry suit, but I am wondering if there's anything I should watch out for? I read on a forum something about a very large tree blocking the river near Mule creek canyon.
