*“Rafting the Grand Canyon” – Presented by Idaho Alpine Club
Rob Thornberry and Martin Moore recently spent 18 days ushering a raft down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. They put in at Lee's Ferry in late season on October 24, 2007 and took out at Diamond Creek on November 10, 2007. This meant their party of 4 rafts and 2 kayaks had shorter days and longer nights than they would have experienced during the height of the summer season, but they were rewarded with increased solitude because of fewer people on the river. The trip was a "do it yourself trip". Rob, the outdoor editor for the Post Register for the last 17 years, and Martin, a CH2M-WG Idaho LLC employee, along with the rest of their party, had to plan the trip themselves; from obtaining the rafts and organizing the equipment to planning the food and cooking their meals. Through their slides, Rob and Martin will convey the beauty and excitement of rafting the Grand Canyon so come and enjoy.

The meeting is open to the public. All outdoor enthusiasts are invited to attend.More Info

*Gull 101 Workshop with Birds of Idaho
Start the new year right! Join R.L. at the landfill for his famous Gull 101 workshop and become more "gullable". The flora is lacking but the avifauna is interesting and R.L. is the expert! Note: This can be a very cold trip so dress warmly, especially on your feet.
