TAR8 Location /Speculation

Slowhatch:
If you have an RFF address you could ask as an "journalist for an online review" and supply the address if he needs to check the bona fides.
More oddities: I did a yahoo search of Ft. Benton and the only river business I could find that doesn't involve canoes is this one:
http://www.mroutfitters.com/boattrips.htm. But if they were poaching Lulf's business, their boats would be immediately recognized. On the other hand, if it was competitors, then Mr. Lulf might be even more talkative.

Slowhatch I have an addy here for RFF but I'm not sure that I want Mr Lulf to know that i'm up to no good  8-)' .
Maybe I'll just write to him on a personal level afterall.

Please note that the dateline on this article from the Great Falls Tribune is September 17, 2005 and the events described happened in Ft. Benton from Wednesday through Friday of this week.  According to everything we have learned, TAR8FamilyEdition wrapped up between August 1 and 5. CBS has already shown us pix of the teams and unless TAR9 is off and shooting, this is all pretty much a bunch of hogwash!!

puddin:
GMan this is the part that had me thinking that the Amazing Race was there in the summer .. although the writer of the story makes it seem recent  *(^

Lulf's first reaction was there must be some bigwigs afloat because there is a "no wake" rule on the Wild and Scenic stretch in the summer, and upstream motorized travel is not allowed.
But the motorized restrictions, which start the weekend prior to Labor Day, are lifted the weekend following Labor Day.

Slowhatch:
Good eyes. It definitely looks like a deal-killer.

--- Quote ---Colleen Lulf contributed to this story.

As I read it, she was the whole story, all of which reduces Puddin's request to one sentence:
"So, you got any photos?"
