We got out on the Boardman Aug 4 before the crowds and before the heat.  The trip from the dam to Beitner was just plain wonderful.  I was just a last minute impulse to do the trip.  Bob, Fred, Judy, Lois, Pam, Tracie, and I did the late morning run.  Next time I promise to give more notice. 
 

 
There is more than one way to enjoy a river.  At least so we learned that morning.
