American Whitewater
I noticed that ACC is not listed as an affilate paddling club with American Whitewater. Most paddling clubs across the US are. Does anyone know if there is a reason or is this just an oversight. AW does quite a lot for river sports across the US.

Re: Little Buffalo River
When the Buffalo is packed, perhaps an even better option is to put in at Kyles and float to Pruitt. Not many outfitter trips put in there and most privates avoid it cause they want to do the upper when there's water. Long day float but first part has scenery comparable to the upper. Mostly you'll s...

Found this photo of our first trip tandeming down the Hailstone taken at Keyhole. This was taken about 1989.

Re: The good 'ol days
I love Bill Mason. My favorite quote is, "I love canoes. I have sixteen of them. I could use several more, but you have to make do. "

Re: The good 'ol days
Wow, Terry! Thanks for sharing the link. Makes the Battle For the Buffalo come alive. I would think the Hedges, Hawksleys, and Neil Compton should be in some of these but I couldn't ID. I sent the link to some of those that might have earlier connections with these people. Makes us a little embarras...

Re: canoeing with kids
Get a quality good fitting PFD and get them out at a young age. I think many people wait way too long to get their kids out and miss some great opportunities to provide outdoor and paddling experiences. We just had the one son, but we took him down Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend at under age 2 and h...

Re: Return of the River
We visited the Olympic Peninsula area over Thanksgiving. Every home in that area has a bright red sign in the yard that says, "Stop the Wild Olympics Land Grab". Lots of anti government/environment sentiment locally.
