Pitt river, Widgeon

Nie ze by sa nic nedialo. V poslednom case sa deju 2 veci. V Elenkinom brusku veci velkolepe a vonku pomerne vytrvalo prsi. Prsi tak vela, ze keby mi ktosi povedal, ze vidi vonku na ulici kajakara, tak mu hned uverim. My sme vsak vyuzili jediny pekny den v tyzdni a vyrazili proti prudu rieky Pitt river smer Wigeon creek. Nepodarilo sa nam vsak nalodit z miesta nedalekeho, skor dalekeho. Nakoniec 36km (blaaazni) a dojazd asi 1h po tme. Bez celoviek samozrejme. Rieka pomerne prazdna, stretli sme zopar clnov este za svetla. Situaciu nam komplikovali prudy, ktore tu vznikaju posobenim prilivu a odlivu. Nakoniec sme trafili padlovanie proti prudu tam aj spat. Pri nakladani clnu na strechu na nas zacali padat prve kvapky ohlasovanej burky, cestou domov na dialnici opat idealne podmienky na kajak.
zopar fotiek tuna :
zdar

Recently, two things have been happening. Great things in Elena’s tummy, and the other - it is raining outside steadily. It rains so much that if someone told me of seeing the kayak out on the street, I would believe him. We have made use of only one nice day of the week and headed upstream direction Wigeon Pitt river creek. However, we failed to embark on a nearby site, and ended up paddling rather far, 36 km and finished about 1 hour after dark. Without any head lights of course. River was quite empty, we met only few boats. Situation complicated currents that are created by tides. And we just got it wrong, paddled against the current both upstream and downstream. When lifting the boat onto the roof of our track, first drops of the announced storm began to fall.
