A gorgeous day on FB9; about 77 degrees and sunny, with very few clouds, running about 1500 cfs. The three of us made good time from Barnard to Stackhouse, stopping to surf at Sandy Bottom, and enjoying some eddy hopping at Ledges. It was Mike Johnston’s PFD, he styled it, and he had his first combat roll in Swimmers Rapid. Way to go Mike! Afterwards we celebrated with beer and burritos in Hot Springs. A fantastic way to spend the day. Thanks for coming out guys!
