Day 24 - Gone Fishing

Harrison hadn't pooped for 5 days until today.  We were all relieved when he did :).

This afternoon we went searching for a good fishing spot.  Google says that the Elk River has "world renowned" fly fishing.  It also said that the fly fishing is better late in the Summer.  Worth a shot anyways.

First we found Forsyth Creek about 28 km North of Elkford.  Beyond the creek you can hike (or ride horse) into Connor's lake.  I was told the creek has some very good fishing... just not today.


Our stay at Forsyth Creek was short as Vinnie almost got swept away in the current.  3km farther North we found a backroad heading East towards the river.  We came upon a very nice stretch of the Elk River where we spent the majority of the afternoon.  No fish and the water froze Emily's feet however the hot dogs were delicious and scenery was amazing!
