Had a chance to go to the Lower D for a few days recently. It was a time of great camping,food and fellowship with great people. The North Umpqua crew broke loose for a few days and had a great time in sleds and drift boats fishing a great river.

The river was flucuating and semi off color due to the White River but still way fish able. We touched fish every day and the weather and wind was remarkable in many ways. From freezing temps to sunny days in the 70's. Then rainy nights with a whole bunch of wind thrown in. I got to see what 45+ gusts can do to a summer dome tent. It didn't end well lets just say that!! Several memorable full moon rises were seen as well. It was good to see the river again and she did not disappoint.
