Chris did a 4 day sixty mile float trip with his family, family friend Levi Cushman, and his sister's friend Wes on the Smith River in Montana this past week. Unfortunately it rained for the two middle days so the camera was tucked away in a dry bag and the river was blown out so the fishing was non-existent. The Smith River could be classified as a National Park as the geological formations are amazing with many natural arches, caves, chimney rocks, shear rocks, etc that are simply unbelievable. We saw 10 bull elk(in velvet) running together, several black bears, countless mule deer and a few bald eagles. The trip is by lottery drawn permit only so there are a limited number of people on the river every day. The campsites are pre-selected before launch so there are no disagreements as so to which group is camping where. If you ever get the chance take advantage of floating this river.
