7/13/2006: Green R., Rainbow Park to Split Mountain CG

	With: Jon Hitchings, Karen Egbert, Gisela Padmali, Bernie Culpepper
	Jon and Karen had reserved a Green River day-trip permit that was available thanks to a cancellation. We got to the Dinosaur National Monument Visitors' Center by 10:00 AM to claim the permit, Dropped Jon & Karen's car at the takeout at the Split Mountain Campground in the National Park, and drove a long way to the put-in at Rainbow Park. We boated the Green through Dinosaur National Monument in the NE corner of Utah at 2500 cfs on the Jensen gauge. After three grey and chilly days in Colorado, this clear sunny day set the tone for the remainder of the trip. We camped in the Green River CG of the Dinosaur National Monument, two or three miles from the takeout.
