August 2017 - Hatchery Ford Float Trip


This was a fun trip the weekend before the Eclipse.  We thought everything would be crowded, but lo and behold, we had the site at Hatchery Ford to ourselves.  The following day on our float from Riverside Campground back to the Ford we were joined by a wonderful couple from Montana who helped immensely in navigating the river and providing fun along the way.

It's a technical stretch, but safe to say it's the prettiest stretch along the Henry's Fork!

March 2017 - Reunion Flats - Teton Canyon

We had just barely enough snow to make it up to our campsite at Reunion Flats.  But we had Teton Canyon almost entirely to ourselves that night.

Almost there!
