It was nice to see you and Lengthy out there in style - worthy effort trying to get in to the lunch surf spot too - that took some effort... even in a longboat:)

Definitely one of the more memorable Armada's for me... even though I spent a lot of time in a Shredder (which was a blast). Getting helmet deep in the Mentor... and having MrTGrips do the same was definitely the highlight for me:)
Keep the C!

had an awesome time!

thanks paul, sorry to miss asci and savage, but the alure of Bear creek was to strong. (It aint your momma's class IV !)


Pics looks good, Mark (now known as Mark Zack'A' jaweea)
I especially love the multi action shots on the NB. I hope the camerais salvageable.

The campsite was alive with canadian sawing logs, marshy lowlands, and as I looked out my window sunday morning (just as the rain stopped) I saw a very damp, furry little squirrel head lower itself from beneeth a canoe. It lokked around shrugged off some water and scampered away. I guess even the wildlife can appriciate open boats!!!

and not that he'll ever see this lets give a shout out to the Camp host who gave us some dry firewood and tinder for our sat night festivities.

Great weekend all the way around. Great to see everyone again, I'm already looking forward to next year. I finally got on the Savage :D What an awesome run :P

I've got 100 pictures up. They're not exactly in order, but I think I labeled all of them. Feel free to tag as you see fit. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=5 ... 3a635ce97e

Some shots from the Dry Fork and Bear Creek. No shots of the really good drops on Bear Creek, though. I was too busy keeping my 13 foot boat in the 9 foot eddies to get my camera out...

Thanks Sean for posting the photos, it was great paddling with you on the Dry Fork. Let's do it again next spring. Bear Creek looked like fun. We did the lower half a few years ago.

till next
