Today was just another day spent on the same old stretch of river with best friends and a whole new way of thinking about the river. It’s crazy to think that you can paddle the same river for over a decade and still have great new discoveries in your own backyard. Today was of those days. Thanks Ethan and Marty for the adventure!
Once on the river we found perfect flows, and proceeded to have one of our more enjoyable days of paddling in a real long time.
The last leg of our trip. Marty Bell sneaking Poudre Falls, Spencer Heights
