We slept in our Jeep (all the motels were full from the firefighters) at a campground east of Riggins and left about 7:30 the next morning. We contined east up the Salmon river. |

We had to get to the other side of the lake to visit the crashed B-23. It was either take off our shoes or cross on the log. We both made it across (and back) without getting our feet wet. |

We replace a missing geocache here. It was Barb's first visit to the site. |
