Big Eddy 1/7/2012

The Big Eddy at ~4400cfs, and Kesley's first trip at higher water. It was my first opportunity to paddle in a new Stomper 90, and even though it was an easier river that I was safety boating for at high water, it was a blast to paddle! Easy to turn, holds a line pretty well, and plowed through whatever you lined it up to. I'm certainly looking forward to getting another chance to paddle a Stomper on something harder.

Another Sky Run 12/27/2011

Nothing major to write about again, it's the same river as always.

Main Sky 12/18/2011

Kesley's first run down some low water class III.

Main Sky 11/25/2011 at 6000cfs!

We put in at Index on the N.F. Skykomish river and ran the really fun section that lies between Index and the confluence! Too bad I had a memory card error, and didn't get it corrected until I was portaging Boulder Drop... So here's the video from the Sky at 6000cfs!

11/11/11 Sky Run

Main Sky run with a bunch of UKC officers, former officers and some friends, I finally decided to try Boulder Drop (IV), and made one not so great mistake and went for a swim!
