Welcome to my journal, documenting my life on the water. Hopefully you’ll find something useful or interesting here, whether you are a local kayaker or a visitor from overseas, new to the sport or an old hand. If you are expecting extreme paddling missions in exotic locations, my adventures are a little more low key. Remember adventures are an important part of life, so pursue your own adventures, big or small and live life to the fullest.
News and Upcoming Highlights
Probably not my most active paddling season, too little time, and the weather & trip schedule never quite aligned. I did get two enjoyable trips in, so I can’t really complain. Hopefully next season I will do better. Paddle safe and hopefully we’ll see you on a river soon.
