I am in Austin this weekend, but I understand a ship of the line from the RBF fleet cruised the Cossatot without me in it yesterday (I loaned my red Whitesell Descender to Lippo (a/k/a Branson Boy, Tulip Girl, Monkey Face, The Short Republican, etc.). In fact, I understand the Descender ran a portion of the Falls section without anybody in it at all, as Branson Boy made an unplanned exit at the rapid formerly known as BMF. In honor of the event BMF will be referred to in all future ARG trip reports as LLR (Leaping Lippo Rapid) (apparently Lippo went airborne).
Anyway, if you have any photos of my red Descender becoming unmanned at LLR, ARG will pay top dollar for them (top dollar being the going rate). The ARG flotilla was one of the first groups down the river yesterday (would anyone expect anything less from Cap'n Downstream?).

P.S. LLR is not the safest place on the river for a paddler and canoe to go their separate ways. Not to worry: Cap'n Downstream and Ranger Rick have assured me that the Descender is okay.
