We think of the trip as a comfortable 5 day trip. While we have our favorite camps for nights 1, 3, and 4, we’ve tried many sites for night 2. And with the continued revegetation on the old railroad sites, some of the camps we have used have disappeared. This trip, we camped on the lower edge of the Tasnuna River delta, but as we started off in the morning, we found that the river has opened up a new channel on river right, below Tasnuna River and upstream of the bank in front of the Heney Glacier. There were several excellent camp sites along the left bank of this right channel. We’re definitely aiming for this on our next trip.

The area circled in yellow had several nice camps and easy access when we floated in July, 2026 at 140,000 cfs. I think that it would also be good at significantly lower and higher flows.
