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

Topic: Cataraft Frame

What are the dimensions of a cataraft frame you would recommend for a 14 ft Wave Destroyer? The Chafe strip is 93 inches long. Any particular brands you would recommend? Thanks

Topic: Status of the MFS for trips in June

Hi Zach. I have followed your channel for a couple of years. I like your approach and respect your opinions. After years of trying I finally have an opportunity to run the Middle Fork of the Salmon. I am looking for any beta intel on the status of the log jamb and how that might affect a mid June trip? We are assuming to launch at Indian Creek. I realize no one can predict what will happen. Just interested in the word among the locals. Are trips still being planned for June? Any thoughts should the logs break free when a trip is planned? Thanks for anything you can offer
