Richele can officially put the Surf Colorado bumper sticker on her car now!
She and I and Pat Ringrose headed down to the Ark on Saturday, 8/9/2008 for one last hurrah for 2008 before the water got shut off. Richele’s kayaking goal has always been to get good enough to be able to kayak the classic, Class III rapids of Brown’s Canyon. And on that gorgeous summer day, not only did she do that, but she did it in style! She made the S-turns and boulder gardens and waves look easy after working hard on her technique for the past two years!
The boating season is unfortunately starting to wind down with only the Blue River and a possible raft trip remaining. Oh well, still too much to do here in Colorado.
Here are a few more photos of us going through Zoom Flume, including all the rest from my other 3 weekends on Brown’s Canyon this summer.
