Beat the Heat, To beat the crowds and heat we will get going fairly early. This is the prettiest section of the Boardman, from the Forks Campground to Brown Bridge Landing. We will begin at the Forks Access, take a short break for a snack midway. There are several fun riffles along the way. The current is quick, but the river is wide enough to be easily negotiated by adventurous beginners. This section is a good place to practice maneuvering in current and practicing those back ferries. Paddling time should be about 3 hours, so we will be done in time for a late lunch for any wanting to go out. I may pre-spot a car to get us going quickly depending on our numbers.
