Im down getting more and more excited to come out and boat with people who know the river out there. The safety factor for one. Last year I was out there when the gal got trapped at frog rock. Not in my plan to drown

Hutch is only an 8 hour drive from BV. You should think about making an early season trip out too. April is usually warm enough to enjoy the river, but the flows haven't really came up yet. The more time you can get on the water the better. Plus it will give you an opportunity to get more comfortable with whitewater before the big water comes crankin down the hill.

Shonuff, yeah, hope to see you on the river this summer. I'm pretty easy to run into on the whitewater park after work, and maybe Logan/ Phil U (my dad) can get us all on the fractions or something. That's pretty wild that our waters flow by you in KS... sorry to hear it's not as steep or respected there though! All the best.
