Stanley, Idaho- August 12, 2011:\n\nThis image is of a majestic Sweep Boat tied up at Rock Island Camp on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River in Idaho's Frank Church Wilderness Area at low water in August. \n\nModern Sweep Boats are unique to the Salmon River, and most particular, the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. Sweep boats can only be steered; there is no method of propulsion other than using the constant gradient of the current to allow for this baggage barge of sorts (designed to carry about 70-80% of a trip’s gear and supply load) to be floated downstream. Controlled and steered only by two long sweep arms (two big rudders mounted to the bow and stern), the sweep boat builds momentum and uses the gradient to fall downstream. The mechanics of how they move builds momentum, and when properly ‘driven’, the boat moves faster than the current floating it and has the ability to track in and around the rapids. There are no brakes and stopping a boat without prior planning is often wishful thinking.\n\nUsually the boatman (or woman) is the first boat to leave in the morning and remains alone for the day. An old boatman’s adage is that a sweep boat is hours of boredom broken up by moments of sheer terror: if you get into trouble help is far behind and well delayed.
