Chapel Hill Roll Session January 27th

In the spirit of Trip Reports gone by.

There were around 15 boats. 2 really long kayaks. One 2 man kayak with a woman. 4 playboat kayaks. 1 ruined kayak. 2 creek boat kayaks. 4 river runner kayaks. Some of them were blue. Some of them were red. Some of them were green. One of them had blue, green, yellow, red, fade, orange, black and white. One of them was orange. Several had several colors.

There were a lot of kayaks upside down at one time or another.

The end.

Trip Report Yellow River China

 

I bet this is a first; The Yellow River in China.  But this story is more than just a story about a trip to the Yellow River, it is a story about karma.  But then, aren’t all stories about rivers actually stories about karma, the karma of what happens before the river, the karma of what happens on the river, and the karma of what happens after the river.

I’ve seen this rapid before.

I’ve stood, trembling slightly, on these rocks and surveyed the length of whitewater before me, in an attempt to figure out how to avoid all those nasty little places where I don’t want to go but would inevitably end up.

This list is partially transposed from soggy papers from the wettest WOR on record, from many emails and Facebook messages.  All errors herein are probably due to Cruise Chair.  Thanks to Bill Dement and Marlow Durbin who helped read wet and runny hieroglyphics and to Sarah Ruhlen for her editing and remarks. Happy Memories and Happy Reading All!  Joan Monnig, Cruise Chair
