Little Dorky

A little more than a week from now, with thanks to my good buddy Dave, I'll be at Lee's Ferry getting ready to push off into the Colorado to float 297 unbelievable miles of river with 7 friends, taking 21 days.

Dave's dory "Hellgrammite" will ride again, after a flawless on-sight run last year. I'll be rowing the gear barge - my 16' Achilles HD bucket boat, with the help of Ginger the Kid. Larry will split duty with Iris rowing brother Al's NRS cataraft, and Bug will be rowing Blue Boy. Whitney and Dave's pop are also along. A fine crew, almost everyone an experienced boatman.

Happy trails to you, until we meet again.
