For all of those who did not know, Idaho is very wet and very wild. It was our first time going up to run the Payette river and all it's forks. It was definitely the wettest camping trip I have been on. It never got above 60 F the whole time we were there. But we still had a blast! This is our camp by the river. It rained the entire first day. I mean, poured, and I mean all day!! Here are some other highlights...

My oldest rowing the Main Payette with the boys.
My oldest with my husband- the only two dedicated enough to go the first day (it was around 48 F and still pouring rain).
Me rowing the Swirly section of the North Fork. (I let Sam do the hard parts).
My children on the way home- no worse for wear after their cold camping experiences.

The best part of the trip- we met some people who told us about these cool hot springs. It was very fun! You had to wade across the river (to the knee at deepest), but it was worth it!

Ah, our Saturday night baths. At least we didn't smell like smoke for church the next morning!

That looks so fun. Great pictures. I love the hot springs discovery, it's just cool to find stuff like that. Wish we could've been there. I loved the slide show too, with the "Mission Impossible" 'ish type of music. Nice work.
