June 25 - N Br Cleanup

Published on 6/25/2009
Today, Kathie Carpenter, John Mesch, Marv and Marlene Puska, Norm and David Fred paddled the N Br from Dam 4 to Kellogg Bridge.  We stopped for lunch at Jackson Hole.  The cleanup was very successful.  We found less than 1/2 a bag of trash among ALL of us.  What a gorgeous river!  I have NEVER seen one so clean.  It was cool, clear , fast and CLEAN!  No other boats and no fishermen.  We had the whole river to ourselves.

 

We had 2 canoes and 4 kayaks.  Norm's "T" grip came off his Mitchell paddle but he had a spare.  No worries.  Now he has a project for the weekend.

 

Thanks to everyone to be willing to work.  But we really didn't have to.  Maybe we are making a difference in this area.

 

 

 

 

Here's what my paddle did on the river.

 

 

Here's what it looked like at home.
