I think we had 21 or 22 people and 8? boats. You should have seen the face on the State Trooper when he passed us.

I took these today...no real 'action' shots, though we had a fighter jet do a low pass over the lake..I'll upload a video when I get chance.

2012 Paddle Trip

We took the ferry to Sitka and paddled home to Juneau in early June. 225 miles in 10 days -- and a few of those were just morning paddles because of afternoon wind and seas. Will head north on the Dempster later this month. Now, if I can load a few images....

White water canoe school

We're taking a small group on a 12 day trip on the Salmon River (Idaho) this fall. One of the teams had to recuit a new comer. With no canoe experience we required he attend a three day course with Canoe West on the Middle Fork of the Kalmath River (Northern California). Neil & Tom are excellent teachers, so I and my canoe partner came along for a refresher course.

Here the newbees are on a class 2 rapid (open canoe) with only three days experience in a canoe. I was pleased and impressed with their progress.

Special thanks to Niel & Tom for their patience and skills in teaching.



Thanks,
Fred
