Will you hit your fav spot on the river or lake this summer?

In years past it was almost a irresponsible amount :happy:


I remember someone in the past say 30 or 40. That's damn high and they should be damn proud.

I think the norm for most people is 3-8.

Where are you??

Have 10 trips to the river currently planned this year. That does not include our trip to Powell this year.

We try to go at least 1 weekend a month through the year with week long trips splashed in with the normal weekend trips.

We try to stay on the every other weekend plan. We did 5 weekends in a row, I decided I needed a break. I cant wait to get back tomorrow night!

Boatless & don't have any plans to be out on the water anytime soon. Maybe someday that will change, but as I've gotten older the less I want to drive 5hrs on my days off. If I lived closer or had a more flexible work schedule of course I would love to be out on the water. But until then I can surely find something to do locally rather than driving all that way. I've thought about moving closer but extreme heat for 4-5 months per/year is brutal, so idk...

Up until 2 yrs ago it was every other weekend from April to october. Last year there was only like 6 trips and I've been once this year :( probably won't be able to go every other weekend again for another 2 yrs.

Where are you??

30 to 40 times is a lot.

20 total will be at about it for me. We go in the winter too. It's easier when you have a place. I would have been there the last 3 weekends and every weekend of July but I have to move and it seems like it's taking forever.

I don't go to them regularly either. However, when I was there, my friend that lives there took me and it was the best one I have ever been to.
