Pretty good year with a lot of good paddlers!

We're a little late to this 2013 paddle log thread but here are the digits for we three Sig's. I think I counted everything correctly as the year went on.

2013 saw us paddling for 32-37 days on 15-18 streams for 113-170 miles total. We continued to try out lots of boats this year which means we paddled 7-10 different boats. Some were open boats and I've made the switch on OC1. This, of course, upped all of our swim counts (4-13) with Mandy having the fewest (duh!).

Last year also saw us camping out 23-38 nights last year and hiking 40-108 miles. Hiking has taken a backseat to paddling but Mandy got her numbers up by spending three weeks rambling around the western US.

Even our dog Hayduke managed to hike 31 miles and camp out 11 nights.

All in all, it was another great year and a lot of that credit goes to the community of paddlers that has taken us in to safely show us the ropes. SYOTR!

I opened a kayak shop and strangely enough, I paddled less this year than ever before! I was hoping to win a Middle Fork permit to force me to get back in the game, but no such luck! lol

I had plenty of days on the water teaching flatwater classes. I also had some days teaching whitewater classes at the Toledo Bend Spillway, but that was about it. I also paddled some "big" water at the dam one day and then did some stand up paddling at the spillway afterwards, which was interesting. lol
