Update Part 2

May 2012:  Owhyee River Raft Trip; Oregon

We have had our eye on this rafting trip with Road Scholar for a while.  The Owyhee River is in South Eastern Oregon, in the lava flow areas of the Columbia Plateau.  We spent 5 days on the river in 6 person paddle rafts.  The white water was not huge, the scenery, geology and desert flora were stunning. On the way to Oregon, we visited the Tetons, Yellowstone, Black Hills and points in between. We just can't pass up an opportunity to explore.

 Enjoy a few pictures of our adventure.

 Raft tripping with an outfitter is always fun, the crew makes plentiful and delicious meals. Camping on gravel bars can be windy and cold at times, but it is all part of the adventure.   

 Others were using the river long before we arrived.

Can't pass up a chance to spend some time in Yellowstone.

We hiked to the top of Harney Peak in the Black Hills.
