John Day River Trip, Post 1
We just spent a week on the John Day River testing last year’s solo nesting canoes. These sorts of trips are pretty brutal for me because of my medical issues, so if we could forgo the “Good to see you on the water looking so healthy!” comments, it makes it a lot easier for me to share these sorts of things. Thanks!
Anyhow, we saw some cool stuff, crashed into other stuff, learned some stuff, and shot so much video then I’ll probably be editing it for the rest of my life.
I actually took very few photos but I’ve got enough to make a few posts about various aspects of the trip while I dig into the video work. Let’s start by focusing on the experience rather than the boats, so here’s a bit of texture from the Oregon desert landscape.
I’ll talk about the gear we brought, The durability of the canoes in this context, and the pros and cons of going catamaran as opposed to large single over the next few posts.
