My pal, Jarett Bies, took a three-day self-contained decent of the Cheyenne River in western South Dakota this past spring with a couple of friends. They decided to take out of the river along a bridge that lacked easy access to vehicles and used an ingenious method to hoist out their kayaks. This type of improvisation is characteristic of Jarett’s adventures on area waterways. He recounted this cruise during a presentation at the SDCA winter conference in Sioux Falls in January.
