Summary
Jon and Noah chat about how a boatman can get riders wet while Scooter shows she's learned something about the Canyon. She has the idea of putting the uncomfortable Nicole at the oars for some of the easier parts of the river, and it works. She even handles two small rapids herself, Thirteen Mile and Sheer Wall!
Two GCR motor rigs pass the Canyon Tours, with Jim saying a few words to Scooter as they go by. Scooter suggests to Buddha and Giselle's boatmates who they should ask for surfing lessons.
At House Rock rapids, Nicole and Nanci walk and then take pictures of the rafts coming through. A private party has already settled at the planned campsite, so Scooter will have the rafts head on to North Canyon, which is also where GCR will be.
