Curious to see the numbers they are basing these decisions on as well. As many of you are aware, the nates didn't show in good numbers last year until the last week of April. Were the collection methods designed to measure bunched arrivals or are they based on a sampling methodology? I'm sure I will have more thoughts on this once I overcome the shock of hearing that a river I spend 60-70 days a year on might be closed. Go figure.
