Ice in the Salmon River
Today we flew over the lower Middle Fork of the Salmon, and back up the Salmon River to Salmon. There were numerous ice jams on the Middle Fork. The Deadwater jam on the Salmon below North Fork had backed up nearly to North Fork. It is winter in Salmon River country. It will be around O here tonight. Elk have moved to the low country. Last night we could hear cows mewing outside the house.
