![]("smileys/smiley28.gif") Giiiiiirl power!! The second run was awesome. I hit the green tongue right between the flake rock and the rooster tail and sailed right through, upright!! I am slightly jealous of your pink boat..... When are we going to boat together??

Did you try downloading it? If that doesn't work I can send full size ones to anyone who wants them.
PS: On my verson there is a little magnifying glass button above the pic, try that?

Me too. For some reason, watching waterfall footy is much better than having nightmares about the huge spider in the b-room at SRK today.... ![]("smileys/smiley19.gif")

Ash, I just watched your line, nice job!
A little further right and you are a supa star. ![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley39.gif") |

I was further right the first time. The second time I stayed upright... It all flushes. ![]("smileys/smiley31.gif")

Hey Ashley,
Adam and I are going to the Sky today, so maybe we can boat together then? I'm going to be doing the lower section ![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley41.gif") But soon I'll work my way up to the upper section. Way to go on the second run - wish I could have seen it! We ran it in the raft - obviously not the same, but still cool. |
|
Yeah, my boat is pink, it's okay to be jealous.

Originally posted by ashleygoesdiscoI was further right the first time. The second time I stayed upright... It all flushes.
This is true for friendly levels. At low flows it is REALLY sticky. I received a royal beat down trying to boof the left of center line, penciled in and spent a while getting beat down only to resurface, roll, and get pulled in backwards for a much longer time. After pulling my skirt I was recirculated several times before resurfacing. My boat stayed in for another minute or two and after a closer look both the bow and stern pillars where pulled out (but still in the boat) and the line of my throw bag got yanked out of the bag. I had lost respect for Husum after countless laps and finally got the beatdown I deserved. I did run the "normal" line the next day to even the score. At higher flows it seems to flush but packs a big punch when you hit the bottom of the falls.

SWEET FOOTAGE!!!! Thanks for getting it posted (to all who took pix, etc..) What a great weekend! The only bad parts were the traffic on the way back up I-5, and slicing open my toe on saturday (it seems to be healing up well though ![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif") ). I think next time I'll stick to my backwards way down there through Yakima. A little longer, but no traffic.
Hey Leif, how was your exploratory mission on the backroads?

So who had the best line of the weekend? My vote goes to Estel. Flipping in the top of Maytag and running most of the rapid upside down is one thing, but nailing your roll just above the botton whole was very cool to watch. Way to hang in there!

I've checked through most of what has been posted and can't find anything. I thought I saw at least one or two pix of me on sat. night. Just wondering... ![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley10.gif")

Ashley - I've uploaded all the ones I have. Alison took videos of everyone on the river including lots of people not in our group and filled up the camera. Seems we all look the same in our kayaking gear. I deleted a bunch of what I thought were other people but looks like I deleted a bunch of our videos too. Sorry about that ![]("smileys/smiley9.gif")

Even though some of the photos were deleted, I think this is one of the most documented trips I've ever been on.

Beware of the green tongue at different levels, it does get a little sticky.
