Thanks. That was taken two years ago. Unfortunately that river got burned this summer and all the pretty foliage is gone this year. It's one of my favorite big rainbow rivers and it will be interesting to see how many years it takes to come back. Mud slides have closed the road off and on, and no access is currently allowed to the river. Here's another shot of the river taken by a plane/helicopter moving upriver in September:
Fire isn't kind.
