Thanks for watching! Hopefully have a few more to upload soon (Just posted Green's Creek this week). I have a lot of footage taken this summer on Broken Skull & Nahanni rivers to sift through as well so stay tuned if it is of interest!

I saw your Green’s Creek run too, was great but I’ve been here for over 30 years and didn’t recognize the whole first half of the shoreline!! Cheers
