Spring boating season is coming up, and it is time to practice swift water rescue skills! I have got a FREE clinic for you! The clinic will include a throw bag lesson and practice and a live bait lesson and practice. The date is March 9th, 2024. The clinic will be from 10 am to 2 pm. It is a check-off for my Level 4 ACA Swiftwater Instructor certification. A certified instructor trainer will be there to observe the clinic. Please RSVP if you are interested, and I will send additional details about the meeting place and details for the clinic. The exact location is TBD within the Eugene area. This clinic will take place in cold water and will involve submersion in cold water. Appropriate gear for cold water submersion is required.

Short quick trip to get the cobwebs off my Lynx. Looking to see if anyone wants to enjoy some sun and paddling. I‘m gonna knock off work at 12:30, I live near Christensen Landing. Gonna go home, and plan to be paddling by 2:00. Should be a class 1 fast paddle and get to Harrisburg around 4:00-4:30. Warm weather but cold water. Dress accordingly and please have proper safety gear (pfd, helmet,wet or dry suit). No recreational or flat water kayaks please. Also note that this will be more of a paddle rather than a float. I typically like to go faster than the current floats me down the river.

March. In like a lion. Out like a lamb. Or as John Belushi said, in Honduras comes in like a lamb and goes out like a salt-marsh harvest mouse. Never mind all that. Let‘s go paddle! Marys is coming up the next day or two and will drop to about nine feet on the gauge for Saturday. The weather prognosticators say that our local star Sol will be shining its countenance upon us. Wanna go? Class two stuff. I have lunch reservations at the Trestle Extension. I‘m open to putting in at Harris and taking out at Priest Road or putting in at the bridge five miles west of Philomath at taking out at the Cedar Mill. Let me know.
