As 2014 ushered in yet another great year of life, I fulfilled a long time goal of mine and moved to the town of White Salmon, Washington in the amazing Columbia River Gorge. Change is the only constant and this year I chose to concentrate my paddling rather than running around looking for lots of variety. However, the quality and variety of the Columbia River Gorge are unmatched by any destination I have traveled to in my kayaking career. Not only does it have the best river in the world, The Little White Salmon, but there are so many quality runs and amazing waterfalls this area boasts! Moving to town I found myself surrounded by the worlds best paddlers. Whether they lived there themselves or they were just passing through for a short stay, the presence of this elite crowd is unmistakable! The best thing about this is these are my friends, my motivation, and best of all my community! To run with the wolf-pack on this level is a unparalleled opportunity and undoutably I am a much stronger paddler for it1 I have found home in The Gorge!</div>

I am more happy with life right now than ever! I have strengthened my mind through doing what I want with out exception and I feel that those around me are stronger for it! I have been eating healthy and truly feel this is maybe the base of success as good fuel in equates to good energy out! Through constant activity and stretching I feel more in tune with my body than ever and see the importance of this practice for future longevity of my active lifestyle. I feel more spiritual than ever but could never be farther from typical religion and philosophy. I take what I can from the two but at the end of the day I inherently know what is right and true and I strive to live a life of honesty without regret! We can learn the most through observation and connection with nature!</div>

The Little White Salmon is a blessing beyond compare! (Maybe the North Fork of the Payette) This river flows for the majority of the year but for those that choose to paddle it regularly above the level of 4ft truly know of what a valuable asset this river is to the world of extreme kayaking. I am not trying to be cocky and elite but this is the SHIT! I ran this river 85 times this year finding myself hucking Spirit Falls 70 of those times. I couldn't get enough and best of all it was only 15 minutes from the house to the river. Most days we would run the river twice, once in the morning and then again in the evening. I have a fond memory of one day when Mike Peacher and Myself ran the river in the morning, returned home and put a leg of lamb in the oven, went back to the river for another lap and returned home to cocktails and a perfectly cooked leg of lamb - Damn that's Lifestyle!</div>

Toketee Falls is an amazing destination and has been on the top of my hit list for some time now. It is an elusive waterfall as it is very tricky to find the right flow window. We made multiple attempts at this stout before the stars aligned for us to run it. It was super cool to have Chris Korbulic with us on the huck as he made the first descent a few years ago and even cooler to see him reunite with his stout amongst a rad group of 10 paddlers! We sent the beast and then headed to close by hot springs for celebration! While in the hot springs, half the group decided it would be a swell idea to camp out and send it again in the morning! And thats just what we did!</div>

Eagle Creek seems to be a staple these days of people trying to go vertical in The Gorge. I am not a super big fan of the lack of control it takes to run Metlako Falls and the attitude of less experienced paddlers flocking to this destination but it is epicly beautiful and I definitely had to get a slice of the pie for myself! I believe baby steps or running waterfalls in increasing ten foot intervals, such as starting at ten, twenty, thirty, forty, etc.. is the best way to approach the waterfall realm. And really I feel there needs to be a movement back towards hard rivers with big and challenging whitewater- Truth!<br />

Outlet Falls is maybe the best waterfall I have found and ironically it ran for a solid five weeks this year! I mad four visits to the stout. Outlet was high on my hit list and it felt really food to get it checked off! This waterfall is only 40 minutes from town and saw a crazy amount of descents this year! One notable day it was running real juicy and we had an epic amount of media including the Shifted Cinema crew operating RC helicopters through the gorge. Six of us stepped up this day and I was one of them. I ended up having a sick line and am pretty stoked to see the final edit from Substantial Media House.</div>

One of the gnarliest drops in The Gorge is Upper Bridal Veil Falls and this year it saw a few descents. Notably it took strong man James Byrd out of the equation for a bit. It was sick to see him make a quick recovery and get back to his bad ass self. This drop is a major tourist attraction and an easy 40 minute drive from White Salmon! Props to Kyle, James, and Galen for firing up the beast this year!</div>

The New Jawn Stout was the new new shit in town this year. First descents still to be had , even in The Gorge! Funny fact of the matter is that it was named something totally different to begin with but it didn't stick. Funny man, Graham Seiler, called it the New Jawn and before you know it, everyone was calling it the "New Jawn"! Makes no sense but many things that Graham says make no sense and we all just go along with it. The Shifted Cinema boys also made it out to this drop and grabbed some sweet Heli shots. It is a pretty unique drop as it stands about 60 ft tall with a reconnect a little over half way down. It also has two mining cables coming out of the falls, one of which lies in the flow, a bit concerning to the kayaker looking for a clean line!</div>

Amongst other notes in the Gorge this year were many super high descents of the Wind River. I showed up not knowing the full extent of how awesome this river could really be! I was apart of the group that bagged a 11.5ft descent and can't wait for my next chance to get into this high water extravaganza! The river at this high level was comparable to the N.F. Payette but more constricted. Super powerful and absolutely no place to swim! Pretty wild to have such a high water river amongst all the steep creeks and waterfalls.</div>

This Spring was my best yet and I have fallen in love with the PNW! Best spot to be a kayaker in the country! Feeling so strong from it and amazed at the quality! I have since moved to Idaho and am currently sessioning hard on the NF Payette. I am not seeing as many rivers this year as years past but damn it feels good to ware out the best ones I know of! Truthfully I am seeing more Class 5 than ever and am able to push myself harder as quality oozes from the Little White and NF Payette!</div>

In the beginning of November I traveled to the notorious whitewater town of Tlapacoyan in Veracruz Mexico. I found an amazing accommodation at Aventurec and will definitely be returning for future missions. I knew the area had high water and figured I would be able to get a variety of water levels. The water stayed high for the duration of my trip and did not allow me to tackle some of the stouter drops I had my eye on. </div>

The area was beautiful with quality bassalt canyons running through lush rain forest. The waters ran brown and high and I constantly heard stories of normal lines buried beneath an extra six feet of water. I enjoyed the cultural experience and have taken many mental notes and am ready to return and crush. Luxury logistics and hucking to be had in the Alsaseca drainage!</div>

I have been hanging out in California for the last 5 summers and every year I seam to make my stay a little longer. This year was no exception as I first arrived to Cali back in April not to leave until the beginning of December. The scene is laid back to say the least. Hanging out in the Coloma area I was able to surf on the South Fork of the American and soak up sun rays on a daily basis. California also has 4 annual races held on some of the dam released sections that flow in the fall. The festival/race season starts with the Cherry Creek race. Will Pruett took first place at this years race and tied the course record- congrats to Will! Note - this year we were forced to relocate the party shortly after the race due to the Rim Fire that would eventually become one of the worst fires in California history. The damage from this fire will have a big impact on the 2014 whitewater season in California as access to Upper Cherry, West Cherry, Middle Cherry, Cherry Proper, South Tuolomne, and Clavey will not be available due to park closure. </div>

The 2nd Festival was Feather Feast held on the Tobin section of the North Feather. This festival is always a good time and is the biggest Whitewater festival on the west coast. It is a big fundraiser for American Whitewater and a good chance for all skill levels to meet up and party down. The river is not the hardest but has a definite California feel to it with high canyon wall and smooth granite boulders. For most this dam release represents the first time back in a creek boat since the last of the snow melt. This year Isaac Levinson took first place and learned why winning the Tobin Race has a heavy trophy that can make feel more like you've lost! All of the winners had great attitudes as they were forced to drink victory cocktails that may not have been anywhere near desirable. Tracy Tate placed high on the overall standings at 5th and came in 1st in the Women's division.</div>

This year the 3rd and 4th festival had scheduling conflicts and Burn Fest of the Burnt Ranch Gorge of the Trinity was held on the same weekend as Gnarlfest on the South Fork of the Feather. Both events are always fun and have a good race. I had been hanging out in Humboldt and chose Burn Fest as it was considerably closer but as the name hints I believe Gnarlfest is a little more heavy of a race. I was super stoked to claim 1st place at the race and then more stoked to hear Will Pruett had done the same at Gnarlfest. As these two festivals wrapped up the festival/race season it was clear that it was either time to move on or get amped for skiing or snowboarding- change is in the air! </div>

In California you always have to keep an eye on the gauges as dams may spill or divert water into a river bed at any time. Hell's kitchen of the N. Stanislaus will typically have a super short and unannounced flow window in the fall. With the low water of the last two years it would of been completely rational for the run to not see water this year. But Will Pruett kept the faith and checked the gauges regularly, allowing himself, Thomas Moore, and I to cash in on the super short flow window of 48 hours. Hells Kitchen is aptly named and is a hell of action packed run for being a dam release. Certain runs have big rapids that have seen few descents and for Hell's that rapid is known as Portage 24. For the second time now I have indeed portaged the behemoth but it haunts the back of my eye's and hopefully one day I will fire it up! The big one aside we had a great fall day traveling through the deep granite gorge- gotta love some granite. Highlights from the day were knowing where we were going (Last time we had an epic!) and ticking off the quadruple drop which we had not run 2 years before. </div>

With a California season wrapped up I headed up to Washington for sessions on the Little White and anything else I could get on with minimal portaging due to my bum ankle. Soon after arriving I jumped in the car with Nichole Mansfield and Erik Johnson and headed up to Levenworth to meet some friends and paddle the quality water the area hosts. We visited the Tumwater, Ice Cycle, and the Tye. I ended up staying in Washington for two weeks and bagged roughly 20 laps on the Little White - Stoked to Session! I would return to Washington later in the summer and bagged laps on The Cispus, Lower Lewis, and The Green Truss!</div>

After Washington I headed to Idaho for a 3 week stint and eventually another week for a total of 4 weeks on the North Fork Payette this summer! I have grown to love this river ad belive it to be one of the best training grounds around. There is endless potential on this river as you go from avoiding all the features to charging right into them! I was able to grab 40+ sessions on the river with up to 3 session a day sometimes! I was blessed with good weather and amazing camping and friends to hang out with. Highlight from the trip were simple lifestyle, solo laps - concentrating and feeling confident as I paddled into Jakes each time, and 2 amazing moonlight shared with sick paddlers - Seth Stoner, Galen Volckhausen, Tyler Allen, Ben Luck, and James Byrd! </div>

Stoked to be able to get a ton of kayaking in while having a sprained ankle! Little White and Payette are possibly the two best class 5 sessioning rivers out there! Shall we do another lap!</div>

I first visited California in 2009 and was instantly hooked on the the clean granite and heavy flows of the Sierra Nevada whitewater. The Middle Kings had been talked up to me as the "Trip of a Lifetime" with epic proportions and the hardest whitewater one could find in the lower 48. I was forever changed after my first trip to the river in 2009 and 2013 would stand as my 4th visit to the sacred waters of the Middle Kings!</div>

A little older, wiser, and more experienced I set out into this 4th trip with Will Pruett and Jake Greenbaum. This would be Will's 4th trip as well and and a 1st for Jake. Just the three of us out there- too cool! With damn good beta from Will and Myself to Jake we were able to really flow down the river with minimal portaging and scouting! I could talk statistics on how long, big, far out, and difficult this particular river is but when it comes down to it the Kings just has a personality unlike any other river I have visited! If you have the skills to get in there, then I think you need to get it! Its majestic and will leave you tired of taking class 5 strokes!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a great trip with a steady 1500 cfs through out the run! Highlights of the trip for me were: getting to show my buddy Jake down a river that was on the top of his to do list, crushing the hike with way more ease than usual (on my 2009 trip - the hike-in alone was the hardest thing I had ever done mentally or physically), every moment I looked up and acknowledged my epic surroundings, on the negative side - a sprained ankle in the bottom 9, traveling in my kayak, too many quality strokes, and a celebratory 3 hour frolic in the water with my two buddies while we waited on our shuttle ride! I love the Kings because it is never easy and always provides transformation - A True Journey!</div>

Jake Greenbaum and myself hit the flow window pretty perfect and were blessed with two high water runs and a third with regular flows. Fantasy Falls is arguably the best run in the High Sierra with maybe an exception for Kings or Postpile. The 24.9 mile run which drops 3,100 vertical feet is quintessential Cali style whitewater. The scenery and camping are some of the best with lush meadows and high granite walls bursting with hanging falls flowing out of high mountain lakes. High water lines and drift trees perched over head show evidence of the massive flows the river must see in flood. The water levels rise and lower up to a foot and a half each day as the river breathes and diurnals more so than any other river I have paddled. Every night the flow erupts to a level that makes you happy you are camping, only to wake up to a much lower flow as the headwaters of snow see there daily warming and cooling. The river as we have been running it has more volume than most in Cali and gives the paddler a chance to be engulfed in flows and sinking deep strokes. Real kayaking exists in the great waters of the Mokelumne.</div>

The highlight rapid of the trip was definitely the Untouchables Gorge which just saw it's first descent last year by Sam Sutton with second and third descents by Lars Lammler and Ryan Lucas. Jake was the first of our crew to fire, claiming the fourth descent, and he ended up running it every trip for three descents. By our third trip we had a seven person huckfest on the beast and pushed the total amount of descents up to fifteen. On that same trip Dylan Thompson hiked a loaded boat back up lapped the giant making for two descents in twenty minutes. The collective Charge that existed between our teams was next level and just the kind of energy one wants when running huge rapids of this caliber. The big rapids of the trip were Jedi Mind Melter, The Momma Gorge(didn't run), Untouchables, Island, and Show Me Your Tits. The Momma Gorge seemed to either have too much or too little water on all our trips and I think the majority of us are eager to fire it at the right flow in the future.</div>

</div>
As the summer season of 2013 rolls in I have embarked on a journey back to Cali! This makes 5 seasons in a row now that I have traveled to the blessed arena of whitewater beasts- California. I am very stoked to be back in my second home and making returns to the the amazing whitewater that only exists in this great state. The Sierras have seen a very low snowpack this year and the water will be done sooner than ever. However, the classic High Sierra runs must still go. Short and sweet is the mission and we have been doing a good job of making the best of it.<br />
<br />
I am accompanied this year by Jake Greenbaum riding around with me in the van. Jake is super fired up and is in my mind one of the strongest paddlers on the scene. I am very stoked to have him riding with me as our styles mesh well and the collective fire on big rapids lessens ones own anxiety and leads to fun days going big!<br />
<br />
We have met up with many great paddlers and friends and have been having a blast on and off the river. One of our first stops of the trip was the infamous Three Rivers, where we always seem to go big on the Gnar and at the Bar! The Kaweah River system is stuffed with smooth granite and steep miles. We had daily sessions on the Hospital Rock section, and a huckfest on East Kaweah as well as the Chuck Kern Slide. After many days of Kaweah goodness we made our way north and grabbed a run on the Siver Fork of the South Fork of the American. I was able to visit this run back in 2010 with Will Pruett and Dustin Marquart but our group was forced to hike off the run due to high water. I was super stoked to get back in there and finish the run as well as firing the beast of the Silverfork- Bruised Balls Falls. <br />

Jah Bless the Truth Tour 2013- Stay tuned for an epic update on our Tripple Crown of Fantasy Falls!Soul Paddlerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02863869624177097496noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769606451778616439.post-68493819992362907152013-04-18T10:46:00.000-04:002013-04-18T13:04:11.045-04:00Toxaway Blessings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Toxaway River in the Jocassee watershed in North Carolina is by far the biggest, gnarliest, fastest, and most aesthetic piece of whitewater on the East Coast. The rapids and slides seem to last forever and the whiteout effect is in full swing. I was able to paddle this river back in 2009 and haven't been able to catch it again until this past week. This past trip was blessed with a healthier flow than my 2009 descent and I would dare to say the flow was on the high side of perfect. There was much more energy and inertia in the water and the rapids had there demons. We had an amazing day out there and I know the next time I return to the Toxaway it will be a Blessing!</div>

The last drop of the day is so good and huge. Wintergreen is about 80 feet tall and straight off the dragons back. I was blessed enough to half miss an eddy and half want to fire the beast blind. So, that is just what happened. I love the feeling of connecting rapid sections, or not slowing down, just rolling in hot over a big horizon line, staying in the flow, this be the Truth!</div>

New Zealand was a great time packed with good whitewater surrounded by scary rocks. It was great to explore a new place via my kayak and the people were very hospitable. It was a great way to pass the cold months of winter! It is now the first day of spring and I have been creeking in the South East for the last couple weeks. I have been able to get runs on new things as well as familiar classics. The stoke is high and I am rearing to leave in the next couple weeks for spring/summer boating in the west! </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I feel stronger and wiser than ever before and have many goals for the oncoming months that will push myself to new limits in my kayaking! As Spring ushers in heavy flow in the creeks and over the waterfalls I am very excited to share in the hucking that will surely go down in all the major Mecca's of kayaking across the country. I hope this will be a safe and glorious season for all!</div>

Four weeks into the trip I have found myself on a plethora of runs stretching from the West Coast of the South Island all the way down to the Southlands. Accompanying me on my travel have been two of my best friends, Michael Peacher and Will Pruett, both these boys are solid chargers and great to have on the river. We have met up with and been well accommodated by two of our dear Kiwi friends, Barny Young and Jordy Searle, and the Charge has been a priority since day one!<br />

I have been paddling a Red Bliss Stick Tuna which I must say is no where close to as good as the Green Dagger Nomads I am use to slaying it in. I now have a new respect for just how much better of a paddler the Nomad makes me. Truth!<br />

The whitewater is challenging and continues and most of all dangerous. The young geology of New Zealand means the rivers have not had much time to form leaving tons of debris to be moved out to sea with every rain and flood. This results in boulder gardens and sieve piles that seemingly go on until the gradient is done. The rivers are glacial fed and have a beautiful aquamarine color as you can see! I find myself lost in the swirly lines of the metamorphosed rocks and stones, and there are always majestic mountain peeks to your left or right. It's no California but what is! I am happy to be in another land enjoying sunshine and summer while the states work through wintertime.<br />

Short after our arrival Michael Peacher broke his ankle on a throw and go portage, as he found the bottom of the river. It hurts me greatly that his trip has been cut short and as I write this he is in the hospital being recasted and he is on a plane back to the states in two days. Will Pruett has also had a change of heart and is cutting his trip short as well, leaving back to the states a day after Michael. So, this leaves me driving solo for the next five or so weeks. I have full control of the 96 Nissan Vannette, AKA the Lovanette, and I'm gonna keep on charging. We were three and now it is just me! All good though! <br />

I first visited California for kayaking in 2009 with my first river being the majestic Middle King's. The Kings was my first overnighter and the beginning to a romance sweeter than I would have ever imagined. Now after 4 Cali seasons I have completed most of my goals (always new goals to be had) and visited so many amazing drainages. Cali has everything I want in kayaking and has truly become my home! Jah Bless the granite, the sun, the crystal blue waters, and all you nasty huckers givin it each summer!</div>

Gnarlfest is a extreme kayak race down the South Feather river in California. This year was extra special as we celebrated the first ever Greenboat descents of the run as well as the first Greenboats in the race. Will Pruett and myself probed the run and certified to others that it was even possible to get the long race boats down the run. We had 6 racers in Greenboats and the race has officially been transformed into another long boat extreme race. Next years race will include a ramp start into an additional rapid at the beginning of the course making sure to bump up the Gnarl factor on this awesome race!</div>

<br />
The Pacific Northwest's Columbia River Gorge has caught my eye as one of the most impressive, aesthetic, and spiritual river valley's I have ever been blessed to visit. The whitewater is off the hook and I am looking forward to moving there this winter and spring as high water amongst the area serves for massive potential. The Gorge will offer me striking distance to Northern Washington, the Olympic Peninsula, Northern Oregon, Idaho(high water), and of course a short drive south to Cali! I have really fallen in love with this area of the country and I am looking forward to all that it has to offer me!<br />
<br />
I have tasted the waters and it's good!!! Check out what I have already found in the Pacific Northwest!<br />

Wyoming Part 2The Box section of the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone is the third deepest canyon in the lower 48 and is infamously known for being the best paddling in Wyoming. The canyons were deep and the granite was smooth and good times and lines were shared by all! Jordy and I ended up doing two laps of this multi-day gem and sent the second lap in a one day push, completing the run in only 6 hours! We had a blast with all the cool people and enjoyed the dirtbagging thoroughly!!<br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

My original plan for the summer was to slowly but surely make my way from Cali up through the Pacific Northwest and into British Columbia, following the west coast and pushing north. All was going to plan until I veared east out of Washington state into Idaho and then eventually to Wyoming putting my entry into B.C. over a month behind schedule. The best plan is no plan with a constant of Charge. And with this theory in mind I have been charging life and found myself hiking into the most intense arena I have ever visited- A first descent of the N.F. of Bull Lake from the base of the glacier's on Big Milky Lake into Bull Lake Proper.</div>

Starting the hike early in the morning after being dropped off in the middle of no where, we presceeded to start our 11 hour death slog, in the rain, up and over a 11,000 foot pass, following game trails, keeping an alert eye for bear's, even further into the middle of no where! So Epic!<br />

Fresh out of the Lake on day 2 we started into the North Fork which to our knowledge was virgin territory and we were about to figure out why. Finding tons of the sickest whitewater I have ever seen, it seemed like every rapid had somethhing majorly messed up in the intro, lip, or exit! It was messed up- so tempting to fire but so wrong. Our descent of the North Fork was so heinous we only managed to make it 2 miles in a matter of 8 hours before our boddies were recked and day light fading.<br />

Day 3 opened up and we were able to make serious river miles. The rock we traveled over taxed our boats with gouges and major losses of plastic. We found some huge rapids and huge portages and the epicness of Bull Lake was close to overwhelming. Firing hard we routed some sick rapids and staeady class 5 boulder gardens. I was in a situation where there was only one way to go- down river!<br />

On day 4 we made a savage 20+ mile push through epic portaging, big rapid's, long stretches of boulder charge, (where Jordy and Myself couldn't resist but leaving the eddies alone and we found ourselves in the flow paddling hard) broken boats, all the way out and across the lake to the take out!<br />

With the Cali season ending early I was stoked to go dirtbag the Payette and reap the rewards of roadside access. What I found blew my mind. The Payette is probably the most bang for your buck river I have ever been blessed to paddle. Straight Gangsta!!!!! With a quick humbling it took a lil longer to memorize the big water lines than I had expected. Once the lines were down, It was GO TIME, with inspiration from Nasty Nate Klema I began to boof everything and the kickflips seemed endless. We originally planned to stay for 5 days which became a rad 19 at this amazing river! I tagged 20 plus laps top to bottom and even bagged a vertical mile in a day with my buddy Seth Swallen. Jordy Searle and myself thoroughly enjoyed the company of all the Bank's and Boise locals and guarantee we will be back next spring for the infamous high flows!! This river got me ready for the shit- Boot Camp!<br />

<br />
I finished Cali in the best of style and headed north to two 80 footers on the McKenzie river between Eugene and Bend, Oregon that have been on my mind for some time now. I culminated with many friends over two days to send 4 paddlers off Sehalie falls and an impressive 8 off Koosah falls. With a bunch of stoke we headed to the Little White Salmon for Spirit laps day after day. We didn't stay too long before we headed to Idaho for boot camp on the North Fork of the Payette. We are currently running laps on this super impressive stretch of whitewater and see no reason to leave anytime soon. After this we are headed north to seek truth in Canada!<br />
<br />
Immersed in the flow, here we go!<br />
