While we were taking a break a fairly sizeable herd of Desert Bighorn sheep came down for a drink. There was a really nice ram in the group. We also saw a nesting pair of bald eagles, a first for us on this section of the river. We passed through a rainstorm in the afternoon with some pretty significant headwinds. We think the rain brought out more wildlife than usual. This was a plus for us. |
Our great group and another great day on the water. |
