Hi Dave,

I tried googling that sort of info, and was surprised to find that I
couldn't find anything. In a way, that makes it all the more
tempting, you know? Still, I was hoping for some kind of info.

I saw that there was an article written back in 2001, in Fish and Fly
Magazine, which would be a bit dated... but regardless, the back
issues of that issue have unfortunately sold out.

DIY is definitely my preference. But if it's impossible: does anyone
have any suggestions for outfitters or lodges?

(I'll have to DIY Alaska, one of these years, too. But over Xmas
break, I'd think.)

I believe one of the Trout Bum DVDs was of a Patagonia DIY. I know it's
doable, and have read reports from two different guys(locals) that have
done it. I'd link you over to the trip reports, but that forum has
changed, and I cannot find those reports. I'll try and see if I can dig
up an email address, or web link to one of the guys site. BTW, this same
guy has done solo, wilderness floats in Alaska, in an inflatable kayak.

Is this Trout Bum the guy who, some 20 years ago, lived in Lake George
CO and specialized in the South Platt and its tribs? Google seemed to
turn up "generic" trout bums.

cheers

oz, who still has some very old cassette tapes by the Lake George guy
