Brad, I guess I'm confused. The map I have (from a kayaking book) has you putting in at Lyons Ferry State Park at the junction of the Snake and the Palouse rivers and kayaking up the Palouse River about a mile to a sand bar on the left that has the Marmes Rock Shelter. The sand bar "looks" like it creates a small lake (which I assume are the remnants of the dike they built in the 60's). The Palouse River runs into the Snake River but I've heard that this part of the Palouse River is a "lake". Is the book wrong on this? It's a long as drive for me and I'd hate to go out there if it was six inch vis (that'd be totally pointless). There's a scuba shop in the area that I'll call later today. -ben --- brad gilmore <bgilmore@at*.ne*> wrote: > Ben, > > This is in the Snake River which will be very > muddy at this time of year.
