blah blah blah......im scrambling and its not looking good you must be talking about when im trying to run back up through the box with my throw rope while aaron is in the cave? or are you talking about me scouting from the left wall tied to a rope please explain all knowing one? since you where there right?
gary you sound like a great guy but you act like aaron is your god. the steepest section is where aaron put on its a whole one good rapid and than a portage and than you go around ablind corner and you are stuck. and than its balls to the wall so kiss my ass. he missed the entire good section between where it starts to get steep to the begging of that steepest section which is 1/4 mile long barely. he missed about 2 miles. IM NOT GETTING INTO THIS WITH ALL OF YOU. NONE OF YOU WILL SEE THE CANYON SO IT DOESN'T MATTER.

"you act like aaron is god" LOL, unlike you kid, I give respect when it's deserved. I've only paddled with Aaron once, son. From what I saw on christopher creek he is solid. Of course I think that run is a solid class 5 with one 5+ drop.
My old friend Paul Zirkelbach always said, and I'm giving you pearls here son.
"No matter how good/crazy you think you are, look around, the competition is staggering"
These are words to live by kid. You obviously have no clue about how many unreal paddlers there are in this state, country, world. Give respect, cause a lot more people then you think, deserve it. Great boaters are a dime a dozen.
Have you ever left Casper? What have you done in the sport to feel so rightous and great?
gary take your own advice i have nothing to prove and i have many long road trips to colorado...... i do give respect more than you or aaron can even fucking realize. im not the one running into shit i don't know i am the one following through as a trip leader to make sure every member of the trip is safe. maybe thats why i was still in the cave with aaron huh. or helping pull my friend from the snake at 14,000 cfs when all i see is his head spinning in a eddy. what about helping your friend out after the crux of bluegrass after he just got his head rattled? you don't know me gary and i don't really give asshit to meet you..... its different for me and you i don't look at my crew as competition i look at them as my brothers.

luke was there the second time when we bombed down the electric slide sorry for using the name we boat scouted and hit it and it was great since its actually the portage routte around a massive nasty 30 cascade into pretty much seives and verticle pins.
So let me get this right. You boat scouted some 'huge' class 5+ drop that was so gnarly. It was a 30' cascade with lots os sieves and vertical pins in it. But, you guys made it just fine.
Spare us the bullshit. You're running manky class 5 that would be fun stuff it it had water in it.
the possiblities of hiking out are there but very unlikely from several places unless you have lots of climbing gear in the back of your boat plus ticks and a abundance of rattle snakes makes portaging very unlikely.
This is my favorite point. I've never seen a rapid, or a river for that matter, had a difficulty rating due to a bad portage or ticks, snakes, mountain lions, poison ivy, or spiders.
I don't care if you have to take a helicopter out of the canyon it doesn't make the rapids harder than they are.
Good new is that if you keep insulting the creek boaters from the area you might have more friends to paddle with. Rando is as solid as it gets but yet you still want to talk shit.
What is it... 6 vs 1 now?

peace i never rated it for the snakes and ticks. i rated the drops as is i guess my friend didn't run dungball last weekend backwards and almost get pushed underneath a seive huh... how can anyof you rate something you havent seen im not calling big south class 3 and 4 cause i haven't seen it later boaters.
"its different for me and you i don't look at my crew as competition i look at them as my brothers" Casper, you really should do some research before you spout. I paddle with the best in the world on a regular basis, so competition would be rough for me cause I'm not that good.
Not too mention paddling some of the toughest runs in the world with an ego for competition, I probably wouldn't be here to rattle your fragile little cage.
Go get a glass of warm milk from mom and relax, it's ok to want to be great at what you do, just try not to spout so loud about how good you are.
"
Not too mention paddling some of the toughest runs in the world with an ego for competition,
YEAH you are right gary its a big ego alright the hardest runs in the world. you are the best gary
boxelder new rating is class 2 with some 3 plus and a little4 in between. just for good ol egogary. i will let you get the last word in here gary otherwise i know that ego might make your head explode.....
I never once said how good i was maybe you just think im that good and are a little jelous?? huh gary???

that right there seems to be the problem here. With all the carnage that Casper had on that creek, you would think that they would want to scout whatever they are about to run. Instead, they broke boats, had swimmers, etc.
Egos are a problem.. On Mtn buzz who cares what you want to act like... I just hope that in person, on a river, you're more calm, collected, and conservative even when you're running the super "class 5+" that is Boxelder. There's nothing worse than having you bro get killed b/c you didn't scout some "30' horizon line with sieves and pins spots everywhere."
Grats on coming into the creekboating scene though. It's always nice to have some more people around.

theres been one swim on boxelder and one broken boat due to shitty brand..... not a rapid
everything was scouted the first time through the only thing i boat scouted on the entire run was elcetric slide on the second run because that is the portage and i knew it would be okey.. what do you know 0 swims last time and 0 broken boats just plain carnage.
you all talk as if you have seen this canyon and have experienced the drops?
theres been one swim on boxelder and one broken boat due to shitty brand...... aaron on both
And how many close calls? I wish we had a multiple quote feature on here. Anywho, slow down... quite trying to impress people and attack them for being class 4 boaters. You're not the only one that runs class 5. I've been doing it since I was 14.. I'm 26 now.
