Jealous of Those who floated the bottom half of Ute Mountain Run

Saw a group of kayakers go by the property the other day on the Rio Grande. I couldn't decide if they were a Alumni from a co-ed boy scout troop or some Taos locals. Whoever they were. They looked to be having fun. What is downstream from us? The remaining 18 miles. I am chomping at the bit. I have no one to pick us up so this complicates matters. I am not down with an 20 plus mile bike trip around Ute Mountain to get the car after our trip. I've contemplated a scooter, a motorcycle, a second cheap car parked at trail's end. I must see what is below us. I'm not even daunted by the hike out with kayaks in tow at Lee Trail. Maybe next year? Manana.
