Time is ticking on ID river permit apps. Whos putting in for what?

Just mailed my Salt app.... already scored a Deso Gray highwater permit
Then maybe Cataract in the Fall
middle fork prayers daily........
Hoping to get my dad on a stellar river trip before I leave the region..
Middle Fork permits might be tough to come by this year with the fire cancellations from last year.
This is the 1st year in awhile I didn't put in...Euro trip and Cr trip are sucking up my $$$ and vaca.
Storm, I assume you are talking about Juanny's permit. He invited me but I turned it down because I thought it was a bunch of flat water and a few class IIIs. Sounds like a waste of time in May, maybe a good idea in July or August but in high water....
I guess I am asking anyone who has done the Deso/Grey is it worth it? I will join you guys if it is.
Yeah it's Wade's permit. It pretty much is a bunch of II/III, but the play is supposedly awesome. And unless you LOVE mosquitoes, then highwater is the only time to do it. I'm hoping that we can also hit up Black Boxes of the San Raf/ Straight Canyon, or something on the Duchesne while we're up there.
We can hit the Cross Mountain Gorge with the playboats. The black boxes we would need a creek boat and thus have to bring two boats. I am not familiar with straight canyon and which boat would go. I told Juanny I am in, do you know the exact dates? Can I bring the dog on Deso/Grey?
storm, you need another on the deso/gray.... and if you get the cat permit, oh my dear god i am so in. ran it once already, and absolutely loved it. i'm thinking of relocating to moab for the summer, so i may be guiding it... i can hope... i really need to call molly and try to arrange something.
Actually not really my permit... it's one of my good buddies, so not my call, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get a Cat permit...they're pretty cake to get.
Don't know the exact dates...I think it's a May 25 launch. No idea on dogs though I imagine they're allowed.
And I dunno about Cross Mountain as a playboat run at highwater... but Straight Canyon would probably be killer in a playboat.
SICK!, Just got my app back from the Salt.
March 28th it's ON!
Not even the end of January and I've already got two solid trips planned. STOKED!
ass :p i can't wait for boating season.
got a Selway last year.... Two in a row Fingers crossed!!!
Yesterday I got my Middle Fork permit. I am stoked, I have only been floating a couple years, I've been on the main and a few other multi-day trips, but never the Middle.
Cross mountain + high water + playboatQuote:

Still waiting to hear from the good folks at the Grand Canyon. Fingers crossed.
Got shot down for the fuckin Salmon and Yampa,again. Got a San Juan permit,its a fuckin cool float. Awesome scenery. Tons of solitude. We did it at low water a couple years ago,end of june,and there were no skeeters. It was a fun time. Will be doin it again in early June this season,if no one else pulls a MF permit. Fuck,i want that one........
Thank you Idaho!
June 2nd middle fork salmon!!!!
It should be raging:D
I should be on a late August grand canyon trip too
middle fork rules.
stupendous man pulled a snake permit. we all got shut out of the yampa.
I got shut out of the Yampa too, I had one in for Ladore too... I really wanted one of those...
Just got the big fuck off from the good folks at the Grand Canyon. :cussing::fuckyou: too
yup, no canyon for me in 2009 (unless i can buddy up with someone more lucky than I).
No luck this year.
2 middle permits in one thread, sick!
All 5 in my group got a big "Not Successful" for the main...bad luck for the last few years.
I take back everything i said. My brother just won a Grand permit for next year. Fuck yeah,i'm goin on the Grand,bitches
Hmmm. Yet again, Carl, you need another rubber pusher ;)

Many, many, many logs from Powerhouse to Pistol. Two drag arounds that were kind of ugly. :frown: Meaning the log spanned the whole river. Probably one hundred or so logs that are 1/3 to 1/2 way across the river.
So BE careful. And let the games begin.
