2004-01-18 - Powerhouse run at Snowqualmie Falls
| Back to the Kayaking Journal

Location: Powerhouse Run at Snowqualmie Falls
CFS: About 3000.
Who was there? Me, Craig (the only two kayakers), Jason (main photographer), Diana (secondary photographer / videographer), Brad (injured safety man)
The story: I'll write more about the run soon....in the meantime, I'll let the photos do the talking.

Videos:
1. Craig's third run through.
2. My third run through.
3. Ferrying across to get ready to surf.
4. Craig's first surf attempt.
Awww...it pushes him right back....Awwww....
5. My first sirf attempt.
I didn't get up far enough before going over.
6. Craig's second surf attempt.
Look how fast he smacks the water....that 'hadda hurt...
7. My second surf attempt.
Listen to the crowd go wild over my mad surfing skills. And then their disappointment when I flip...and then their excitement when I roll.

Photos:
Oh yeah baby....running past the little rock garden about to go down the little chute into the huge waves.
 
Remember that big water I was just talking about?
 
About to go down yet another little drop....
 
..and then here's the result.
 
Turn! Turn! Avoid the big rock. Turn!
 
<Phew>
 
Run #3...the drop.
 
Ready. For. The....
 
SPLOOSH!!! nice.
 
Preparing to surf the big guys....
 
Uh oh....bracing the wrong way...shit...going under
 
Well that was easy....and I'm up once again. Thanks to my trusty eskimo roll. This marked my 4th "combat" roll (being able to roll (or right myself) when I get involuntarily flipped upside down)).
 
Coming off of a huge wave that I was surfing.
 
Preparing to quickly run the rest of the river so that we can all go home and play some music.
