This is why we are here. It’s a beautiful June day, and I was with three good friends scrambling down the well named “SOB” trail into the Black Canyon of The Gunnison River. It’s an extremely impressive canyon; simply driving the rim of the canyon is worth the trip itself. The trial is more like a rappel in spacesuits. There are several sections of down climbing that makes this a much less popular trail, but the reward at the bottom of the canyon is worth the effort. As if the steepness isn’t enough, there are also many areas filled with poison ivy, so my companions and I are wearing pants, long sleeves, and gloves, with wrist and ankles duct taped and all! As we finally approached the river, the explosive rises of fish came into focus. We also noticed another camper set up, and was a bit surprised to see no one fishing. When we dumped our packs and the excitement really set in, it re- minding me of my younger days of die-hard fishing. I was taking off the duct tape from my ridiculous outfit, and I saw our camper friends sitting in the shade. It was a father and son, and I noticed a couple of spinning rods leaning against a nearby cottonwood tree.
