Love the "Holy Crap" look on Marcell's face! Was that at Knuckle Buster?

This was the first Upper Richland run for Liz and I (Liz in Stewart's R2 and me and Monica in my oar raft). It was the most fun we've had on the water. Great support group and lots of help. Thanks to Stewart from talking me into making the attempt and all the others for getting us down. Next time I'm using an R2, those oars are just too much in those narrow slots!

What a weekend to contract the @#%@#$%^$@ cold from hell. Sorry I missed it. by the way, Marcel always has that look on his face when he's rafting. I thought I heard screaming when we were in Jasper.

Classic Marcell expression! In fact I call it doing "The Marcell." I swear I think he does it on purpose! I've got a dozen photos of him with the same expression. I'll post one later tonight if I can remember. It's pretty funny.

Roger,
Good pictures! I tried to buy a print of the picture of my raft at Richland Falls and it gave me a low resolution message. Could I talk you into sending me a copy of that picture?

Thanks,
David Thrasher

How about the look on Roger's face as he gets catpaulted at Upper screw-up.

Plenty of other people in the photos on my webshots, don't know who all of them are. Sorry it took so long to upload them.

For me, a day on Richland w/o a swim is like a day without sunshine!!! Work filter won't let photo show!!
