Did a 4 day float down the Green through Gates of Lodore. Great canyon, fun rapids and lots of alcohol makes for a fun trip. :haha:

Looks awesome. Did you guys take out at the same ramp that we did on the Yampa? Dinosaur Nat. Monument?

Justin, ya, once past the confluence it's all the same thing. We ended up staying at Big Island camp, just across from Island Park where you, Scott and I slept on the plateau

looks like great fun! I spent too much time on LAND in Dinosaur watching all you lucky boaters heading down the river despite the wind. I could tell you volumes about the birds there, but nothing about the river… the video is awesome too - thank you! :haha:
