Made it up there for some fishing on Friday and Sunday.
Friday fished the bridge down to past the log jams.
Sunday fished the bridge up to the furthest part of the canyon trail.
saw one person fishing today, and no fish.
I heard rumors of lots of bears and cougers so I made sure i was carrying some bear spray, and clonkers. Which was a good idea, because I came across alot of bear footprints, and fresh berry dung. I wasnt really prepared for this.

Further in the canyon, I ran into some troubles but with the bear spray in hand I got away safely.

The river is still running away from the hatchery, and not alot of water to fish. Did alot of bushwacking, and the canyon hike was a good workout, with some nice views.

Always carry cans of Kokanee when wandering into the Canyon.

In event of a Samsquanch - drop a few cans on the ground and this should give you just enough time to get away.

If you don't need to use the Kokanee, you'll have something to enjoy you get back down.
