Hi Everybody!
I have been watching Alberta Basins web site waiting for an opportunity to load up the truck with camping gear and see what the torrential rain did to our eastern slopes rivers. A flat tire, rough road and the usual backcountry dust finally got us to our spot. We knew the river was still high and a bit off colour but we could nibble around the edges of the fast flowing water to see how the cutthroat did during the high water and to see what the high water did to the river we visited. Seeing a river completely rearranged made us feel like we were in a new place. We encountered all age categories of cutthroats and they were in great shape. Golden stones were out and that allowed us to dry fly fish with big foam flies (orange crush). Getting around was not too bad for us but the water is still high and potentially dangerous. If you venture out be careful.
