A friend and I are planning a trip down the Colorado River.  All the way from
Hoover Dam ( Las Vegas ) to Imperial Dam ( Near Yuma ).  Atrip of about 310 miles
total.

I have taken a quick peek at the Topo map of the river and see three dams on the
river that we will have to portage.

They are:  Davis Dam, Parker Dam, PaloVerde Dam.

We need information.  Specifically,  does anybody have the information as to the
portage around these dams???  Is it best dome on the left or right bank.  Where is
the put out spot?  Any information that you have will be greatly appreciated.

FYI:  We pan to leave early June for 3-4 weeks ( What ever it takes )

Thanks for all the information...

Wayne Smith
