in North America, the kayaking season in BC is a about a month behind schedule.\u00c2\u00a0 Many of the classic runs were high, but others, such as Furry Creek, which normally run in May\/June were still running.\u00c2\u00a0 So, in addition to some high water Cheakamus and Callaghan, we also were able to check out some other spots in the area.\u00c2\u00a0 After driving all the way up to find the Ashlu with too much water, we decided to check out the nearby\u00c2\u00a0Elaho-Squamish, which was filled with big waves and incredible glacier views.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"P7173317\"

kayakers to slide down this 1km long concrete creek that ended in the ocean.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Unfortunately for pictures, we had to wait until 9 at night for the tide to come in to run the slide.\u00c2\u00a0 But, plenty of people from the community came by to check out the spectacle.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"P7183365\"
