This is the I want my sh!t back Chehalis run (BC)! discussion thread. Please post any questions below. Remember the actual Trip Details are located on the http://Professorpaddle.com/ppages/rte/tripdetails.asp?task=View&TripId=660 - I want my sh!t back Chehalis run (BC)! | Trip Page I am planning a low water gear recovery run on the Chehalis River in BC.

good luck wig! I lost some precious gear in an avalanche last year and after one recovery mission I am all tapped for the season. Hope you have better luck than I did!  |

Kyle, This is my favorite trip name ever on Professor Paddle. Unfortunately we can't join you for your recovery efforts - good luck. Almost 2 years ago, Deborah and I had to return for the recovery of a paddle that I "misplaced" in an unfortunate spot. We were lucky and found the paddle wedged exactly where we thought (2 weeks later!). So there is hope! arn ------------- arn9schaeffer@gmail.com (remove 9 for my real email address) |

Thanks! I give myself even odds my boat is still where I left it. It got stuck in a nasty eddy with a throw rope attached to it, and it looked like the throw rope tethered itself to something. I am just hoping that it has not ripped the grab loop off the boat by now!
Even if I don't get it back I want to at least be able to say I went back and finished the run.

| Kyle, if we get more people to join this trip, we should probably leave earlier since it was time that made it a little hairy. |

So, what happened? Did you get your gear back?

Noone wanted to go, so I reposted the trip for Saturday. Hopefully more notice will spawn more interest.
