So December rolled in with more rain than I have ever seen in the south east. Runs were abundant, with about 15 laps on Suck Creek, multiple runs on South Suck, 2 runs on Bear at 18 in and a 22 in run with hefty tribs that turned it into more of a 26-28(crazy out of control boulder garden). A run down LRC at 7 in, including my first huck of the falls. And countless sessions at Rock Island,(which ran over 4 grand for a month *WOW**Brave Wave Sessions*) where I've been dialing in my air screws at high water and my phonix monkeys at lower flows. I moved to Chattanooga at the beginning of the year, awesome town, and love the white water and climbing scene. I finally found a job today and now I can start saving money for Cali adventures.
Here is a video my buddy Will made of some of the local runs including my first run down bear at 18 in.
