Was out there this afternoon. It is not flowing very much. Could walk across in some places and almost jump from ice to ice in one spot. Alberta environment says 6 meter cubes per second west of Sundre. Not a lot. Seemed to be more downstream of Sundre. _________________ Don't forget your boots |

I'm approx 40 miles downstream of Drumheller, and it's up probably 4' or more from 2 weeks ago. |

Launched at Garrington bridge and ran about half way to Sundre. Wasn't going to put-in but was shamed into it after two boats from Sundre pulled in, put in, and away they went .... Anyway it was great! |

Pulled my boat out of her winter home yesterday and today got her wet for the first time this year, launched at Garrington bridge and ran upstream a ways. Boat was running awesome and wanted to keep going but was by myself so I didn't want to get to crazy. Pretty stoked that boating season is here!
Windowlicker I talked to you on Sunday when you were loading up and if you make it back to the Upper Red shoot me a pm if you are looking for someone to join you for a burn. |

Will do. Did you get your hands on some Sea Foam? |

I did and yesterday I started my boat up with a garden hose hooked to it and it was idling fine, I did spray the carbs with Sea Foam and it was idling pretty high but was not idled high enough to get any engine temp, part of the reason I wanted to put it in the water today and run it at operating revs and with a nice warm motor. Must have been maybe some crud in a jet or something because today it ran great. Idled good, reved to 5100 rpm, jumped on step fast, I am pretty happy now. |
