Hey - I just noticed that this would be post number 100. So I think this is a great place to say thanks to some key people for this site.
A big thanks to EJ, James and Colin - and to the other Ambassadors across the globe for time and content.
Also these sponsors for making events like Hometown Throwdowns possible.
I’m sure there are others folks behind the scenes that I’m missing, but thanks.
We are looking forward to a great paddling season and some great WK events - See you out there!

Wow, one of our paddling buddies, Connor Jackson (CJ), put together a great video promoting the construcion of the Boise Whitewater Park. Just goes to show you that no matter what your age - with a little drive you can make big things happen. CJ has been championing the park since early last summer, and even met with the Mayor and made a presentation. Nice work Connor!
Check out his video HERE!

…check out Idaho Outdoors ‘Extremely Idaho‘ - there is a segment on kayaking featuring our pal Mike Copeland and crew. 8pm on Channel 4. Mike says he heard it sounds like he is chewing crackers during the interview - so it should be entertaining! 
Slow water between rapids means ice dams on the Payette this time of year - This one is just above Climax Wave.

This could be the spring to hit the Bladder Wave
