I'm pretty fired up about the idea of a moonlight sky run today, is anyone interested?

Keep the dream alive Gordon! It turns out that you don't need much light. I wont be able to make it to the sky, but I soloed the Lower Salmon(Hammer to Heller) yesterday. I paddled the last 20 miles on the Snake under the full moon, and it was amazing. It's a lot of flat water, but it was pretty thrilling being out there in the dark by myself.

I'm a little reluctant to do a low water sky run solo at night, but that might just be how this mission goes down.  Ninja.

Yup. The whole darn thing. There's a lot of flat water in there too.
