Tim, send me some shades dammit.

Couples weekend in a few weeks at the locsha, you in?

Gary, I thought Jackson was a Smith town? j/k

Don't think I can make a "couples weekend" (no longer with the other half). Charlie, some other CO guys, and I might be up in the ID/MT area at the end of the month, though. Multi day self support? Get in touch w/me or Charlie.

As for rapid names, here are some that I am fond of:
Puke, Angle Left and Piton, My Nerves are Shot and I Can't Take Much More of This, and Shock to the System on Upper Blackwater
Gluteal Mash, World's Ugliest Rapid on NF of Blackwater
Frog in a Blender, Carnal Knowledge of a Deviant Nature, Liquid Bliss, Gerbil in the Plumbing, and The Great Wall of Misery and Despair on Bhote Kosi
Piece of Shit on Homestake
And of course, Coming Home Sweet Jesus, Brink of Disaster, Rites of Passage on the Meadow

That right there sums up why people are having a problem with you on this thread.

GA, have you been up the Poudre lately, is it getting any higher?

Mike, you should think about the people outside of those you are arguing with. Your in a pissing match with guys that are classy and respected in this sport, and your right "I don't know you" but I would never paddle with you just based on your attitude on this forum. Sounds like your a nice guy when your not behind a computer screen, it unfortunate you want to act this way.

In the upper narrows, the water has risen about 2-3 inches/week with a bit more rise since Sunday. I would say that the upper section has come up 2-3 inches in the last 3 days.

It's still low but it's a lot less boney than it was 2 weeks ago.

PS. I was up there 3 hours ago.

Caspermike, SHUT UP! and maybe people will like you.

Splatdog, I heard you were back in the neighborhood. How are the wife and kids I mean boston terriers? Hope to see your green plates on the poudre this summer.

Scott, you are having to much fun.

Gary- i heard something about hair on fire in Idaho, drunkeness in Norway, and a very large water trip to Canada. I have one question, did you recently buy a sports car or leave your wife for a 21 year old? I think somebody needs to check Gary's meds cuz the mid life crisis is here. Sounds like a great summer, you should check with AARP I heard they have really good insurance rates.

I get so bored at work. Are you coming to the wedding? Poudre should be going good next weekend.. Lets do some class 4+ gnar gnar.

"Good Boaters are a dime a dozen"

It's so true... there are so many sick boaters around here that you've never heard of, and just paddle because they love it.

Oh yea, and my favorite rapid name from back east is "Lucifer's Anus" up on the Gatineau in Canada

That is so F$%ked up Rando. It's not me, my friends are the problem. I just go where they tell me, put on what they tell me.

Those Idaho folk are crazy!

You should come up and paddle, nothing like hearing the bee gees Kung Fu fighting, while driving up a river with mortar shells hitting the water.

It's priceless! The best is the agendas they put together. There plan is NF tomorrow night, 2 little whites on fri, 2 on sat and a NF on sun morn.

I hope I can hang for half of that. I tried to tell my boy I was scared and he yelled into the phone "we're all scared, be here at 4 dammit".

[Rando]

I wanna come visit and go to Idaho! So how are your playboating skills now day? I hear they get a lot better up in the independent republic of Jackson cuz theres no creekin. As far as that hit list goes it scares the hell out of me to even think about all that volume (we break boats down here, we don't lose them into the ocean). Have fun with all that you sick old man.

Hey if you run into that little sh*t Justin aka Carpet tell him if he doesn't call me soon I am gonna hunt his scrawny ass down and beat him with his pin kit.
