Little N.F. Clearwater, Day 1

30 mile section of the Little North Fork of the Clearwater River, Idaho over 3 days with Brian Vogt, Steve Pugh, James Black, and Andy Bright. This is Day 1, 6/22/07

Driving East.

*Thanks to Jim for running the top shuttle for us!


A lot of the top stuff looked like this....

Steve Pugh and Brian Vogt working through one of many portages on the upper section.


Northern Idaho wilderness.


Andy Bright and Brian Vogt @ 12 miles in at the first camp.




Camp one, just above Canyon Creek.


Most of day one was low water, open class II with a lot of portages over/around big logs. Toward the end of the day we had more tributaries pour in, adding flow for day two.
