kanukyotee, Are you comfortable paddling the Mckinsey or Umpqua Rivers? I feel that the South Fork of the Smith above the gorge, would be more difficult than these two rivers. The Gasquet run probably a notch down, but the North Fork a notch above. And the water is very cold. I have never done the N...

Thanks

It's that time of the year again. Time to reflect on how lucky we are to be able to enjoy this wonderful sport of ours. Below are three pictures from the Main Salmon that, for me, say it all. Have a Happy Thanksgiving Carol [img]http://images.myphotoalbum.com/r/ra/rap/rapi/rapid/rapids2/albums/album...

My issue is with my thumb on my right ( shaft) hand. It does not like to grip "under" the shaft - likes to be on the same gripping plane as my other fingers. Only done the Cabarton Run once, everyone we ran into seemed very surprised to see us. . . [img]http://images.myphotoalbum.com/r/ra/rap/rapi/r...
