Lost Paddle - Lower Richland 5.16.15

Post by Chrissy » Sat May 16, 2015 11:18 pm

I lost my small shaft Werner Player paddle on Lower Richland. Has my contact info on one of the blades. Hoping it finds its way home to me :)

If you're out that way, please keep an eye out.
Thanks!

Some more details... When we got off, the level was at 2.9. I hit the big Boulder at the bottom on River right on the last Class III rapid. I had it when I first started swimming, but started hitting rocks and lost ahold of it. None of us ever saw it floating, and Donny negotiated/swam around the Rapids looking for it.

Yeah, great story! Donny and Graham constructed a makeshift paddle out of a stick + duct tape. Donny gave me his paddle to use while he used the stick paddle. Good times.
