Low Water

Hi Everyone,

Unfortunately, we have had to cut our expedition short.  Very low water has stopped us from being able to cross the Gran Chaco in Argentina.  While December and January are supposed to be the rainiest months in N. Argentina, they have had very little rain to date and have had several consecutive seasons of very little rain.  This time of year the Bermejo can be up to 60,000 CFS, but it is no where close to that.

We did however get the first descent of the Upper and Lower sections of the Bermejo River in Bolivia and Argentina which are rated Class V.  We will be putting up video and photos as soon as we can.

We want to thank everyone for their support up to this point.
