Middle Fork of the Salmon River 2024

[@suka0706]

It’s perfect just the way it is. Thank you so much for posting this. Getting me through some tough days.

[@natedemer]

Thanks! I make these long un-narrated videos so I can put them on in the background to get me through the long winter months haha

I ran Tappan last week in a ducky and it seemed way LESS chill at 1.8' lol. Nice vid!

[@natedemer]

Haha was it less chill because of the low water level, or because you were in a ducky and not a 16' raft?

[@Benjamin_Holland]

@@natedemer Mainly water level, but I'm sure the 16' raft helps

[@dalesmith9459]

Nice video! Appreciate no narration - just the river talking.

[@natedemer]

Thanks for the feedback! I agree. I know it's not for everyone, and that's ok, I selfishly make these videos for myself so I can watch them throughout the winter, and I KNOW I don't want to hear my own voice haha

[@johnnorton8741]

Awesome. We are running it Aug 1. Hope it is up to at least 1.8

[@natedemer]

You'll love it! We launched a few years ago from the top at 1.77' and had a blast. The new upper section could make for some LONG days at lower flows. Have a great time!

Thanks for the video. What size raft are you rowing? What was the largest raft in the group?

[@natedemer]

I'm in an Aire 156R which is 15' 9". We had two 16' boats in the group (an Orange Marvia and an older Avon bucket boat).

[@andrewpadyk67]

@@natedemer the 156R is the perfect all around boat. 👍🏻

[@natedemer]

@@andrewpadyk67 I agree 100%. It's so good for so many things. My other boat is a Super Puma, but it only makes an appearance under special circumstances haha

[@Austinswild999]

You need to narrate the video please

[@natedemer]

I thought about that, but it's a lot of effort that I just don't see myself doing. I added chapter marks to skip to more "interesting" sections.
