I've posted a link to my totally unscientific rafting personality test.

What else do you have to do in January?

Enjoy,

Eric

Sounds about right. A shitshow is still technically a show. Also on the last Grand trip I did I packed EXACTLY the right amount of beers. Its hard work to party this hard.

So, if I read the results right, I should have been an anal kayaker that can fix anything in a pinch, while I'm checking the checklists and planning camps 5 days out?



I think I prefer a crotchety old doryman that sleeps on his boat and goes with the flow while plunging headfirst into the unknown rapid and hopes it spits him out in the boat at the bottom LOL


Last year's Grand, 28 days to Pearce, I packed 4 cases of beer and ended up at Pearce with 2 six packs, wonderful way to end the trip, but the hangover the next day sucked hind tit.

Uh.... this lest suggests I am more yellow than I realize

 

[trevko]

1. Blue - Always a problem when you have more friends than spots...
2. Yellow - Why wait to start the trip. One more night out!
3. Green - Look at the possible lines and see what works for me
4. Yellow - No worries
5. Blue -
6. Blue - I would add best sleeping areas too.
7. Blue - Chill
8. Yellow - All of it!
9. Yellow - Although I did just do a painless private and it was super easy!
10. Red - of course!

 

[MT4Runner]

#1 - Blue, but damn, I like lists, friends, AND math!
#2 - Yellow. I'm not going to make the group late, but I'm not going to chomp at the bit, either. I'll get there the night before and throw away my watch.
#3 Green: I'll pick my own line!
#4 Blue: I'm too generous.
#5 Yellow: It's what they had in stock
#6 Green: I love my boat?
#7 Blue: Love camp time with friends!
#8 Green: I'm a floating DIY study
#9 Yellow: GC in my dory is the top of my bucket list.
#10 Green: in my handmade dory, duh!

What is this strange blue-yellow-green pattern? I'm not a floating shitshow, but I'm everything else!

 

[DidNotWinLottery]

Wow, you guys are pretty diverse. I am as yellow as a Main Salmon Yellow jacket with barely some blue tinges. Will the mostly Red Guys pony up here?

 

[MontanaMule]

1-Blue
2-Yellow- night before! Engage vacation early.
3-Blue- that way if we flip it’s not my fault right?
4-Yellow- literally carry a spare for the spare lol
5-Blue boat here
6-Yellow- not finding a campsite gives me anxiety
7-Blue- warm fires, cold beers, good convo does it get any better?
8-Yellow- gear nerd here for sure.
9-Green- Never floated the Selway, sounds fun though!
10-Yellow- gear boat for sure! Keeps me close to the beer and snacks!

Seems I’m a yellowish blue, which sounds about right.
