Watch The Big Jump video afterward for a laugh.
The weather broke this weekend so we did our best to get out in it. Saturday I brought the boats up to Council Bluff lake.
Put the boats in and paddled two miles over to the quiet side to meet up with Jimmy and set up camp.
Ended up pulling Jess' boat as I didn't want to leave it in the parking lot overnight. It worked well as a gear hauler.
We took a few mile hike up to the top of Johnson Mountain which apparently includes the actual Council Bluff. Amazing view from up top.
Did a little feeding and hit the hammock.
Was up at 5:30 the next morning to paddle out.
Loaded up and drove over to Onondaga Cave to meet Jess. We shuttled the boats ten miles upstream to Bass. Six miles on the Courtois, 1.5 on the Huzzah, and 2.5 on the Meremac. The water was clear, crisp, and moving. No dragging, even up on the Courtois. Had an enjoyable float with picture perfect conditions.
Yep, I dumped it. High sided a bit when I slammed the log and the current jumped up over the near side and rolled me.
My amazing view for the entire trip.
Courtois in to the Huzzah.
Huzzah in to the Meremac.
Packed it up and rolled home. Great weekend.

Good weekend for sure...a week later a black bear was spotted on the CBL trail...Guess I am gonna have to move the kitchen away from the hammocks.
