Bring your own cooler.
A lot has happened since my last post. I've gotten on some natural flow, including the Green at 33 inches...Crazy big. Soon after we put on, my sprayskirt ripped, so I was nervous to get out of my boat to scout or portage out of fear I would not get my skirt back on the boat. We managed the rapids down to sunshine where my buddy told me I was going to have to hike out...There must be some other way I thought. I was able to successfully paddle out to fishtop with my on the fly repair job. I am not proud of my decision to put onto a class V creek at crazy high flow with anything less than the best gear. I knew my skirt was jangled up before we put on, I thought it would hold. It did not, and it could have been a super serious issue in a hurry had it imploded. Everything was fine, but there is a lesson to be learned.
The other way out.
Where the Gorilla lives.
The monk at a more reasonable flow.
Green Race is Coming. Are you ready?
