from Vida head east up 126 & go hiking at koosa falls area on the mc kenzie river.
it is beautiful up there.
another great hike that she would love is to go to belknap springs resort.
they have some nice trails & a great hidden garden area across the bridge over the river.
you can also setup a river rafting trip that leaves from the resort. we have done that a few times & it is always a great trip.
I agree with knucklehead, those are 2 great choices. How'd you come up with the name marshfeild?

Spoilers: caddis, PMD, green drake, heavy beadhead nymphs and stuff to get down low where the fish are hiding when the water gets warm (aka after 10-11am). I've been slapping at big dark mayflies as well, they seem to think the hair on my bare legs are the best place to chill ever. Bring swim trunks if you want to get really aggressive wading without waders.Thanks for the recommendations. Especially like the fact that I can leave the waders at home and save packing space. I'll let you all know how I made out when I return. Any suggestions as to what flies I might bring?
