Hey guys bringing the family down for our daughters graduation trip, going to be in on the 31st till the 6th. We are staying at
Echo Lodge on the river is anyone going to be around there during
this time? Also any advice on whats hot would be appreciated!!

Badenochs for breakfast

Road Runner for cocktails and depending on the day some good dinner specials.

Foxes is also cool place to get a drink.

Blue Water Casino for a little gambling fun. (although I have heard its not what it used to be). I havent been there in a few years so maybe others can chime in for a recent update.

BTW everything is "hot" this time of year.(literally speaking)

Thanks River we are ready for some hot weather were from wyoming and we have had a very cool spring. We were on the water 2 weeks ago air temp 65
water 50 can't wait

It will be well into 100+ when you get there. It already is now. It doesnt cool down until about November!!!

If you like to drink make sure to force yourself to have lots of water also. You will get dehydrated quick if your not careful. You will spend a lot of time IN the water...its all good!!!

If you have younger kids Buckskin Park is a cool place to get a pizza and video games. They also have video games at Road Runner but its more for the adults.

Forgot to mention. On weekends ski in the early mornings, then relax the rest of the day. You will understand why when your there.

Weekdays should be cool to ski all day if you want to.

I will be at buckskin during the same time...Have heard some bad news lately about the road runner. If I were you I would highly recommend badnocks for bfast and foxes for drinks. Been going there for over 30years and have never had any problems at any of these places.

I will be in the orange 99 2000i tige...swing by and say hi..

Hey Mitch thanks for the info its been about 7 years since we have been down there.we'll be in a red and black 06 20v we'll look ya up.

I'll keep an eye out for you too...beware of the sandbars and rock outcroppings. Also the bend in the river just up river from river island is really shallow and you have to stay way far to the left side to make it around the island. It is pretty well bouyed off but just take it slower through there until you find a clear path. There is a shallow spot south of foxes bout 200 yrds on the az side. There is a shallow spot on the ca side about 500 yrds south of the dam..other then that I am pretty sure it is all safe to boat over. I would only worry about the island all the time and the other spots in early mornings when the water is down.

Shoot you guys are just going to be down river from me...I usually camp at the cabana next to the tree and swim area that is buyoed off at bucksin...If you want we can take a ride up river and I can show you the areas I am talking bout...if not we'll just shoot the breeze when we see each other.
