Died and gone to Haines!

Day 2 - Big Salmon

page 4

The banks are getting taller and the challenge of finding a good in and out
is becoming more art and finess than just hunting till you find a crossing.

sometimes we have to run some distance on the river to get to the next out.
Here is Steven showing us how it is done.

as Sean is showing us here.

We found ourselves crawling out of the river
next to an inviting avalanche chute, we could not pass up.
so we darted off
to add some variety to an otherwise already perfect adventure.

and the river we have been playing on.
