My nephew is 8 years old, and a huge Bengals fan. He really knows football. He's wearing his AJ Green Jersey right now (along with receiver gloves he got for Christmas), and my entire family is watching this game. I only see my nephews once a year, so needless to say, I'm pulling for the Bengals.

:) Bob actually does talk a lot, and he's pretty funny. His personality (along with his knowledge and experience) make these trips very enjoyable. I'd hike with him anytime. :) We did this trip at the end of March. There is water for at least a mile above the narrows, up until the Poison...

Yes, it was a dry camp. You know Bob, he only drinks a liter a day. :)

The Hobbs inscription is in Silver Falls Canyon, not in Choprock. I believe he used his axe to chop the inscription. I feel like I've read somewhere that Choprock gets its name from a large rock above the canyon that looks like its chopped. But I can't remember.

What is your experience with Poison Ivey?

All 3 spots are awesome places. My dates don't match up, otherwise I'd consider joining you. I highly suggest adding Toxaway Lake to your loop. In fact, I would suggest going towards Edith Lake to start, and hike the high route around to Toxaway, then go over to Alice and Twin Lakes. You...

Awesome stuff! Thanks for the write up.

Arrowrock Reservoir and the Boise River?

It does look like a river that's dammed up. Either my eyes are bad, or Ben cleverly made it so we can't read anything written on that map.

You got it! You're up.

too far south. :) Clues can be found by looking at small details in the distance.

Farther south and east. :)

Another fantastic report Ben. Are you thinking of going back up there again this year? Also, isn't there a story to the State Trooper picking you up?
