ParticipantThanks for sharing! In the 2nd photo, is the blown out creek Spike Creek then?

KeymasterThat’s my best guess. I’ll post more info as it comes in.

ParticipantHmm, doesn’t seem to quite match up with the velvet area in my head/google earth, but I figure we’ll find out eventually. Thanks for keeping the updates coming! My group has an August 12th launch date but it’s looking like Indian Creek will be the only option for the foreseeable future…

ParticipantWow, great photos. Thanks to the pilot. Upper section is a mess and probably will be for quite some time.

KeymasterYes of course.
We had our NWRC rafts and sweep boat at the bottom of the Boundary ramp last night to deadhead today. This morning we realized we couldn’t float down river so we (along with outfitters Wilderness River Outfitters and Helfrich) carried our gear up and pulled our rafts back up the ramp. From there we drove all our rafts and gear to Bruce Meadows so Gem Air could fly it all to Indian Creek. As I write this some of our gear is flying to Indian and some is still at Bruce Meadows waiting for more planes to arrive. (Longer Article Here)

ParticipantYes, thanks for the updates, Zach. Impressive job hauling the sweep up the ramp. “Muscle Town USA” guy had the perfect shirt on for that endeavor.
