Scenery and Storms on the Smith River, Montana
I made the call at 7:01 a.m., (being 8:01 in Montana, expecting a busy signal not an answer, and definitely not expecting a positive answer to my question. The question being, “Do you have any available permit cancellations?” After the ring and the pickup, the response came, “Yes, our furthest one out is May 11.” I quickly responded, “We’ll take it” and just like that we were headed to float the Smith River in Montana.
