Great job! Loved the blooper where you lost the guide. When we ran it in the 90's my wife got a great photo of 4 of us swamped and sideways in a hole, with Doc Loomis swimming about 15' behind the boat, lol. It's a bumpy ride for the guide.We didn't even know he was out til we finally emerged from that hole. We thought it was the first paddle boat descent, but who knows? After screwing around on the lower river for a couple days we finally got the nerve to go top down. We had almost the same mishap in Jake's as this paddle boat-- bounced off a rock and about lost our 5 collective lunches before the river set us straight. Spectators above heard laughing, lol. In a 14' SOTAR. Then a year or two later, Bill Bowie and Bobby did a top down R2 in Bill's 15' AIRE, so I guess it's equal advertising for the best 3 boat builders, lol.

Lovely. This is why I come here from Philly. God has truly blessed Idaho with some adventurous beauty!
I'll stick to the Cabarton, thank you very much! Greetings from Payette itself.
Gahonnes!
I had to laugh at your comment about running "wild and free" at the end considering it's dam controlled water...
Nice video though.
