So this is essentially how the text thread went...
Patrick: Want to float the Salmon River next week?
Sarah: F#@k yeah!
And so it was that exactly one week later, I woke in the wee hours of the morn and drove 4 hours to meet Patrick at his home on the east side of the mountains. We piled our gear into his truck and drove with the raft in tow for another 6.5 hours to The Potato State. The next morning we began our 5-day, 72-mile float along the Lower Salmon River.
I hereby present to you a Photo Journal of our rafting trip down the Lower Salmon River. Enjoy!

I have lived a good life with lots of adventure. And while I've done a multi-day trip on my packraft with a bicycle aboard, never have I done a multi-day float trip on a raft-raft. Suffice it to say that I was a wee bit excited for our grand floating adventure.
