Danl called me tonight and wanted me to pass along some news. He
arrived and is camping at Beaver Creek and suggests that all other
campers do so as well. He said the campground was pretty full but that
there were a couple available sites. The biggest problem was that
there are several large families there and judging from the size of
fire wood piles it looks like they are going to be there for a long
time. His major gripe seemed to be the number of young kids running
around the campground screaming and yelling. He found a nice camp site
about two miles down Beaver Creek on the left side of the road and
really digs the site.

In terms of fishing, he said he caught a couple today on mainly caddis
stuff. The salmonflies are around the West Fork area and moving up
stream at a steady pace. He did see two around Raynolds so it looks
like they will probably be up in that neck of the woods in the next
couple of days. I am going out Saturday, coming back Sunday evening
and then coming back on Wednesday. I will be meeting Danl between
10-11 am at his campsite on Saturday. If anybody else is in the area,
you can hook up with us there or somewhere around Raynolds or Three
Dollar Bridge most likely. We will be using channel 11 on the walkie
talkies in case you miss us there.

BTW, Danl said the biting bugs are out in force so bring plenty of
repellent. Kelly was out at the Slide Inn last time I was there and
said that last year he bought four cases and sold only a handful of
bottles. He sold three and a half cases in a couple of weeks this
year.
