Well, gang, we are now close enough that, just today, the long range forecast was posted for Group One on our website link via Der Blog (if this is not already one of your "Favorites" you have made a strategic error!).
With the caveat that the only reliable Montana weather forecast is the one that tells you what happened in your chosen microclimate fifteen minutes earlier, the long range forecast for Group One, E-10 is for clear skies, arriving day temps with highs in the 80's and lows in the 40's--proving my general rule that summer temps in Western Montana typically see daily lows one half of the highs.
That being said, as recently as this afternoon, even with a prediction of clear skies for today, Kathy told me moments ago of a torrential thunderstorm and downpour that blew through Rock Creek this afternoon, depositing an amazing amount of water in a short period of time--one of a series of such typically seasonal storms that soon will see the flow on Rock Creek creep up into the 3,000cfs range and re-reminds each of you to pack a rain jacket in your "go bag"!
Also, our Double Up Outfitter, John "The Great But Propaneless" Gould, reconfirmed with me just an hour ago that water levels in our E-10 targeted Bitterroot River "should be absolutely perfect" for each of our Groups--and that is not just idle talk, folk, as he will be munching on those words as he coordinates each of our daily flotilla of twelve (count 'em) drift boats.
Bueno, bueno, bueno...like me, can you smell it a-commin', gang?!?
