*Public Service Announcement*

At approximately 2 pm yesterday a motorcyclist lost control of his motorcycle and went into the river at mile marker 102 (the Narrows). After an extensive search with dozens of Emergency Services Personnel, the body has not been found. The river is still open for recreational boating, hiking and tourism.

What to do- If you find anything suspicious (something that looks like a body, clothing, motorcycle gear) please do not touch it. Leave it in place, take note of exact location and contact Larimer County Sherriff Dispatch Non-Emergency at 416-1985. If the suspicious item looks like it may be a body, if at all possible, leave someone with the item until Emergency Services Personnel arrive. There are telephones at the Mish and Columbine Lodge. These items and the body may be found anywhere below the Narrows (including Upper Mish on down). They may be traveling or lodged in place.

Also, be cautious of Emergency Services Personnel on the roadside and riverside. Please drive and boat safely and be courteous.

Sorry for the late post. The riv’s occasionally touching the bottom of the bar at 3.5. Quite a drop from Sunday. Currently in the low 80’s and sunny, we will add a little mercury and some clouds, but it should remain a gorgeous day for boatin’.

More evidence the River Gods favor the weekend warrior, we’re down a 1/4 foot from the weekend. Currently 59.8, sunny and BEAutiful in the canyon. High expected to hit 80 with clouds moving in, with only slight chance of rain.
