Here are some more pics. It was about an hour of rowing up river against the current and wind to get to Pastie Cove from Rattlesnake Bar. Going back, we just floated and it took about an hour and a half to get back.

That is where we boat but it is rarely down this low. This is the lowest I've seen it since the early 90's. The water level is down about 80' from where it normally is.
