Oh Yeah, the guy in the play boat, had to be pulled out with a rope. The hole doesn't like play boats I guess.

That is incorrect, if I could actually catch a rope when thrown to me and subsequently hold on to it, then I would have been hauled out. Unfortunately I wasted a perfect rope throw from Nick. Oh and the hole said playboats taste good.

Hey Jeff that looks like alot more fun than the Cadron! Its a good thing you got washed out of that hole, I need some local guys to paddle with. Plus you got to paddle with the famous Ryan Center! By the way HI there Ryan, hope to get back to Fayetteville and paddle or at least play some boatball!

That drop was a surprise indeed! The hole was alot bigger from the view on the ledge next to it, not to mention paddling into it! It swallowed me and my super hero out of sight for a sec. Wish we would have had some of that water on gutter rock. Good times.

Oh yeah, there will be plans to clean the wood out of gutter rock creek when the water gets low and can round up a crew.

Looks fun! Sounds like Hunter styled it!

Yupsir, I remember a time when there weren't any kids who paddled better than grown men...

That'd be b/c Hunter is our next certified BA! I'm so stoked to see you bringing him up this way and instilling a passion for boating that won't be quenched for a very long time. I hope someday when I have kids that I'll be able to spend such quality time with my kid. Those are memories and experiences that cannot be replaced. I know if it wasn't for my Dad teaching me everything he knew about boating that I wouldn't have this incredible zest for life and passion for something rewarding. Good on ya' Nick! Keep up the good work.

We've been needing a new probe since Otter left the team... Good to see we'll have a younger more foolish generation to follow soon :)
