Sorry Dave, I didn't feel like going for strippers and drinks.

I was kidding about that...just wanted to meet for a drink and maybe go to the film fest. I did not know where it was though...
James, I was down there working and had dinner before I went back to WA.

Nice writeup and pics Brett. Glad to hear that you guys had a good trip on Fools. Lower Matheny turned out to be surprisingly excellent on Sunday, despite the looooow flows.

Thanks, Ben. Still haven't done Lower Matheny. Some wood in a couple places in Fools, but overall a very high quality canyon albeit short. The wood shouldn't be a problem if you have the skills for the run, for anyone wondering. Scout when necessary. It's a very committing place and if you lose your stuff you're probably going to have to swim out.
