Skeeter bites an ELF then gets caught in a web

Post by samuraimojo »

Short trip report from 1-23-11:

Temp was 24f and rising. Creek and river iced over at the take out. Local run was more then a foot below our usual minimum. Perfect. Time to paddle.

Some open boat pre-paddling ritual?. Praying to the airbag gods?

All in all a great day on the water. Nothing like a frozen wheelchair run to end the weekend.

good to see someone out there is boating.... I'm dreaming of temps in that range where I am!

Looks like a lot of fun:)

I'm jealous - all our water is solid (great skiing, though :) ).
Keep the C!
