This was our second Grand Canyon kayak trip in a row. That’s 27 days on the Colorado River. It’s not easy leaving the Canyon after so many days. Writing about the adventure is even harder. This group was into experiencing the Canyon to its fullest, both on and off the water. We’ve never explored the side canyons as much as we did on this trip!  In addition, we celebrated birthdays, heard great music performed, saw personal challenges faced, new skills acquired and most wonderful of all, there were long-standing friendships strengthened and new ones forged. If some of these events sound life-changing, it’s because a trip down the Canyon tends to be just that.  It’s a little of the magic that place performs on us all.

I’ve posted a photo gallery here to make up for my lack of words.

Ecuador- keep your season going.

August 24, 2009

We hope you’ve had a great spring and summer of paddling.  If you’re  not ready for it to end why not join us in Ecuador for one of our many offerings this winter.  We have a variety of trips for skill levels from class III+ to IV+.  Check out our website www.adventurekayaking.com for more details. Start dreaming today.

If it’s August it must be the Rogue, no wait, the Grand Canyon.

In what may be one of our quickest set of turn- arounds between trips we have spent less than twenty four hours at home.  We’re just back from two really great 4-day Rogue trips and we are now off to the Grand Canyon for two trips there.  We’ll be back the first part of October to write more about it. Gotta run (aren’t we lucky!).
