Sounds like there might be a short story here.  Why don't you fill us in?

Well thanks Brad.  Its great of you to ask....
 
Alright, so there I was....it was a beautiful day on the Sky.  Recent snow on Index shimmered in the sunlight.  I had decided to wear my white pants that morning as I was feeling very, very confident.  I rounded the airplane rock, still feeling confident, though noting I wasnt as close to the rock as I would have liked.  I made a move for the eddy on the left anyway but missed it.  The confidence was lowered slightly but the white pants remained white.  Then I caught the right side of the hole there on the left below the eddie and went for a quick ride....plastic side up. I made a roll, got knocked right back over and followed up with I think 3 failed rolls.  I pulled somewhere between house rocks.....the white pants fully compromised.

Josh - you weren't the only one having trouble in boulder.  While I lost count, I am told I had six rolls...

Actually, I came up on every roll, just to go into a new hole a few seconds after every roll.  The last one was really funny.  I boofed the last ledge over on the right, but didn't boof good enough, went into the hole, and rolled.  Came up, thought I was done, then got sucked back into the hole, stern stalled, so I just held it there for a moment before rolling again.

All good fun...

No, trying to do a more difficult line through BD, and it just went badly.  I'll blame the fact that I had (and still have) a cold...

Now that Dave's paddle has been spotted, maybe somebody might find mine.  To recap: I lost it in boulder drop while I was busy getting my swim on.  I'm offering a 12pack of your favorite brew as reward.  Or a fifth of your favorite spirits for those of you who like to time travel.
 
Thanks!
