Paddling at last

Every night on this Brigade, the crew captains and some of the advance crew gather to discuss the next day's paddle. Last night the meeting was held in a school gymnasium in Rexford Montana. Close to half the Brigade slept in the gym as it was raining. The rain continued all night and this morning at 8am the forecasted rain made for a wet start. The nine canoes paddled about 24km down the Koocanusa reservoir, slowed by both rain and a head wind. We trailered the boats past a dam and then paddled another 22km into Libby, MT -- this was my first paddle of the Brigade.
