Floating the Flathead River

This eagle lives here because of the abundance of fish!
Last weekend we did a two day family float on the Flathead River from Buffalo Bridge south of Polson to Sloan's Bridge west of Ronan. The normal cubic feet per second (CFS) at this time of year is about 3200. This year it is near 10,000 CFS. The river was big, beautiful, and full of fish. Mount Calowahcan (to the left of the snow) of the Mission Mountains taken from a bit north of Sloan's BridgeThe Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes have a wonderful management program. Clean water and a healthy ecosystem are proof of that. Here are a few photos. I am preparing a slide show that I will upload soon.Jack Mauer and Sadie Linford getting ready to fish.
Visit here again soon to see the slide show. There will be photos of fish, birds, scenery, camp, cliffs, and girls and boys.
