  • we did a pre-season (early May) trip (private party) and it was incredible. Put in a Paradise Campground and took out at Selway Falls. Was that rocky section Ladel Rapid?

  • Don't know what that one in particular was called. Lots of similar sections. The river was about as low as they run it. Still tons of fun though.

  • Looks like a nightmare trip for the guides. Lots of stuck rafts and 5 days with pasty-faced, fussy clients, the kind who cake on a half bottle of spf50 on a cloudy day and bitch because the guide can't retie their fly while the raft is stuck on a rock in class III. Am I far off from the truth?

  • Not much bitchin' going on. Everyone was pretty accomplished with their flyrods. Tons of rocks and hangups and the fishing was marginal at best.

  • when did you put on and which airstrip did fly into?

  • "fishing marginal at best"

    The Selway? In low water?

    I'd say the fisherman must have been marginal!!!!!!!

  • never take rowing advice from someone who says "learn how to oar" that's like telling someone who is a bad driver to "learn how to steering wheel" Yup...nothing like a little "oaring" down the river.  Looks like about 700cfs...not easy rowing by any means.

  • Float that bitch when house rock is a class V you won't have near those problems. And secondly, learn how to oar... you could have saved yourself some trouble.

  • Coincidentally a group I know did the Selway one year before us. One fatality. And she had a dry suit on.
