No....not till the Fall now...

No, pretty much done for the Summer.  In the Fall,
after Laborday Weekend, they drop Priest Lake again
and the run comes in.  However, their is never
really any good eddy access play on the Priest
River but their is some fun catch on the run. 
Probably too low now to be fun in anything but a
canoe.  As for Lion Creek, I doubt that it is
runnable now.   Their is now way to know without
going up there.  If we get a BIG rain, it could
come in for a very short time.  Usually in teh
Fall, we get enough rain for it to come in again. 
The Kooetain just went up to 10,000cfs+ and the
East and West Kootenai's in Southern BC are going
off right now.  Hope this helps.

Cheers

Is there anything happening in the Priest Lake
area?  Are there any play spots on the Priest
River?  Is there enough water to run Lower Lion
Creek? Any info is greatly appreciated.
