im that adventourouse guy that has been obsessing all winter organizing and buying all the gear waiting to be done with work for a couple of weeks, and give it a try on the river. life gets busy and so many other things should be doing during my time off, like chores, but i peddle, rock climb, hike and play in the gym waiting to find the opportunity to get that first trip on the river with the right people to learn the safe way. i have a little expierience back in 2001 in Golden Colorado and practiced the hell out of the rolls, just ready for a first adventure. i live in Bellingham, and all the action seems to be to the south. anybody feels like including that new guy let me know. 360-840-4323
