May 24 Pine River, Elm Flats to Peterson
Lois Goldstein | Published on 5/24/2022
A wonderful group:
Leader Lois, Harold, Pam, Jocelyn, Marlene, Donna and Tom
Thanks to Marv for the shuttle service, and to Jake and Josh for river safety work.
Nobody else on the river today, except two fishermen we met at the takeout.
Forty shades of green.
Good to be back on our favorite northern Michigan river.
Quote of the day, in response to "Where is your gear?" "Right there next to the big rock".
