I am also very interested in Slalom racing. I have not had much time to check the board lately, but I am glad I did this morning and caught this thread. I agree with Heath on the viable locations. I can think of a couple of places close to Okc that could be viable options as well. I basically learne...

I finally have a three day weekend off that there appears there will be water in a creek or two somewhere. Gosh I hope I just did not jinx it! Anyway I will be leaving Norman OK early Friday morning looking to put my boat on the water somewheres. Most likely the tot,but if something like Buck creek ...

I was finally able to sit down and read your your trip report Lorraine. You had told me about it some, but more of the details tend to come out in a good ol trip report. I am so happy for you that you where able to make this trip. It sounds so incredibly beautiful and exciting. Maybe next time I wil...

Thanks for the replies everybody. I have a Cabellas Boundry Waters 20 degree bag and love it. I am in no hurry, but want to get another bag pretty soon. I will explore all of the options you guys have recomended.

thanks, Terry D

I am in the market for a quality 0 degree sleeping bag. I want a rectangle shaped bag and plan to spend between $250 and $300. I am not a big backpacker, but I still want a lightweight bag. Anyone willing to share their thoughts?

Thanks, Terry DeMoe

If I am looking at the map correctly ( I am probably not??) It looks like the area that recieved 15+" is right on the Tot watershed. I am correct in my assumption? If it did man what a sight that must have been!

cheers, Terry DeMoe

I am in the market for a vehicle that gets mid 30's average MPG and can still be useful for my paddling and biking habits. Most likely a hatchback of some sort?? Does anyone have any suggestions? I am not looking for a brand new car. But, something fairly new that fits these standards. This is obvio...

I'm a little late on here for this. But anyway Happy Birthday Dave!! Love ya Bro!! Hope to see you soon.

Cheers, Terry DeMoe

I know he is ready to get on back to Tulsa. Hang in there bro! I know Dave has a long road ahead of him still. But from talking to a couple of people that have been there with him. He is doing better than I was expecting at this point. Man that dude is about as tough as they come.

I know Dave is in his low 70's. He turned 70 on his last GC a couple of years ago. I remember him telling me that on the way to Bobby Bohn's funeral. The man will always be a hero of mine. He has lived more than most will ever dream. Get well soon my friend. Thanks for the updates Catherine. Please ...

I am proud that I have been able to call Dave my friend or many years now. One of the best ambassadors to the sport dearest to my heart that I have ever known. Thoughts and prayers to you Francine and the rest of your family bro! Get well soon. Please keep all of the rest of his companions that are ...

All very good advice! I would like to add to be vocal and communicate with the person or persons swimming. But try not to have too many people shouting different directions at them. And the number one rule don't make any more victims. Always stay concious of your suroundings. Focus on yourself and y...

Thank you all for the advice and awesome poetry. It is much appreciated.

I will check into it thanks.

I am putting together a trip for Tinker AFB (Midwest City, OK) to the Nantahala around Labor Day. We paln to make the fifteen hour drive out in one day. But, on the way home I am thinking about splitting the drive into two days. I believe we will try and make it to at least Memphis or eastern Arkans...
