Paddlers are reminded that based on nearly a decade of negotiations and study, Idaho's Bear River is finally benefiting from pulse flows that provide great Class IV and V boating as well as ecological benefits.  There are currently two different types of releases: scheduled and flow-dependent.  The dam owner has alerted us that flow-dependent releases are anticipated on both Saturday and Sunday of this weekend, June 13th and 14th, 2009.
