On my first trip to BC I learned one thing.\u00c2\u00a0 10 days is not enough.\u00c2\u00a0 There are more rivers in BC than I could possibly paddle in a lifetime.\u00c2\u00a0 I had a great crew of people to paddle with, great water, and a ton of fun.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I flew from New York to Portland, got in my\u00c2\u00a0buddy Chris’s truck and we were rolling.\u00c2\u00a0 We hit up the Green Truss and Cispus on our way north.\u00c2\u00a0 Once in BC we got on the Cheakamus, Callahan, Green, and Birkenhead rivers.\u00c2\u00a0 On the way back to Portland we finished up the trip with a low water run of Tumwater Canyon on the Wenatchee.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a lot of paddling in just\u00c2\u00a0ten days.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

Highlights of the trip were defenitely the Birkenhead and Callahan rivers.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Both of them were abslolutely classic runs, and I managed to do both for the first time at pretty stout flows.\u00c2\u00a0 The off river highlight was a night out in Whistler ( I can’t imagine what that place is like in the winter).\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 I ran into Leland and Andrea up there.\u00c2\u00a0 They seem to be having an unbelievable summer.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m not going to go into too much detail in this report, because I’m sure when they get back they will be able\u00c2\u00a0to do a\u00c2\u00a0much better job of telling you about BC than I can.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m already thinking about when I can go back.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
