| Back in August of 1999, my Dad and I went on a 149 mile canoe trip Down the Wild and Scenic section of the Upper Missouri River in Montana. The guide service we used was Starwest Adventures. I highly recommend Starwest Adventures if you ever consider taking this trip - no experience necessary!!! Below are a few pictures from the trip. Thanks to Don Popejoy for some of these pictures. |

| You may have noticed this picture on all the pages I've created. It's what's left of a homestead along the Upper Missouri River in Montana. I think it represents my efforts of making web pages - not beautiful but still noticable! |
| Here we are just moments before takeoff. From left to right are: Jimmy Napier, Sid Napier (guide), Jim, me, Gail Carbiener (Dad), Steve, and not pictured is Don Popejoy. |
