Saw you on the way back, you guys stopped in front of the house for a pee break. Tell the girls to jump off and pee, less obvious then holding onto the step.

Yea i hear ya:) #2's are just plain fucking nasty. I had a "friend" that pulled a brown trout on a trip one year. It was the end of our friendship to say the least.

The titties part sounds great though.

Here's a couple from my phone. Had a fun day watching the riff raff from Billdo's. does anyone know if the person they were diving for ever showed up? Hoping the missing person was just misplaced and didn't actually drown.

Bunch of scumbags right there and reason #558 on why I will never do one of these lame floats. Really?!?! Taking a fucking dump in the river like it doesn't matter? Pieces of shit, that on top of everyone pissing in the water is fucking disgusting and just asking for someone to get sick. Couple that with puke. No thanks. Buncha retards with no regard to our waterways. Pissed me right the fuck off! :thumbsdown

The average person urinates about 2 liters per day. This is equal to 1/2 gallon. Add drinking beer (and or water/gatorade, etc) all day, this amount would at least double. So with an estimated 8,000 people in the tube float, eliminating approx 1 gallon of urine each, it would be the same as a tanker pulling up to the river and dumping 8,000 gallons of urine/human waste directly into the Colorado River.

If someone did that, there would be a national outrage, a major pollution event and the River would be closed to all recreation in the areas downriver of the "spill".

But because it's a "tube float", it's just "meh".

BTW urine is sterile...:D

This is true, unless you have some UTI of coarse. It is only sterile in the bladder, after that who knows.

#2 not so clean.... But grossly enough poop has been used clinically to cure certain intestinal diseases.:eek:puke:

So you don't mind swimming in or drinking it? :monkeypee :puke:



Sure I do, but what are you going to do?

I'm sure the channel is worse on a holiday, no flow.

The #2 is what really grosses me out..:puke:

We also spend 95% of our time north of the sandbar and south of the I-40 bridge.;):thumbup:

Friend of mine crashed her Waverunner and split her head open. We went to the hospital and got her stitched up. Doctor asked if she did this on the river? She said yes. He started writing, fill these, Take this today, take this all week, put this on topically all week... I cut in and said ,"no she did it on Mojave" He grabbed the scripts and said "Have a good day"

There was an average of 18,700 CFS (cubic feet per second) released during the tube float. While dilution would play a significant role, I still say that people who run the EPA's heads' would explode if someone pulled up to the river and dumped 8,000 gallons (approx 145, 55 gallon drums) of raw urine directly into the River.

Edited - From 17,500 to 18,700 CFS. They boosted up the releases to help the tubers move along better.

Um, Lake Mohave and Parker share the same water, as do Lake Havasu, Lake Mead, Lake Powell and all of the lower river areas.

There were some updates on some of those tests last week. Not as good as they thought.

But the point was that the medicines were because of the tube float. Mohave is before the 8,000 people pissing and taking dumps in the water. ;)

Is the 1 gallon thing a challenge? :D

A CF is 7.4 gallons
So that's about 4 billion gallons in 8 hrs. Plenty of dilution. :D


Saw ,more titties then the sand bar in havasu, .

Pics, duh. :D

This is what happens every day in much larger quantities in most every major city in hundreds of less regulated countries around the world. They run a pipe a mile or so out to sea and the brown trouts come turdling out the end of the pipe. The fish sit there and feed off the brown trouts, the fisherman go out to where the brown trout pipe is, and catch those well fed juicy fish for all you fish eaters to eat. :yikes

And that is why, I prefer steak! :D
