Adventures here and there. Monday, August 10, 2009. Two Harbors Kayak Festival. Two Harbors Kayak Festival. Hmmm. That would conjure up images of sun and colorful kayaks and warm weather and playing with boats on the water, yes? Well, turns out that one can play on the water in fog and mist, and have a great time. I headed up to Two Harbors planning to race in the kayak marathon (18 miles) on Saturday, then paddle with some folks on Sunday. There were 15 - 20 sea kayakers in the marathon,. I had reeled i...

Adventures here and there. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. GKC L4 Weekend: Train High, Assess Low. Train high, assess low was the theme of the Level 4 – Open Water Sea Kayak Training weekend with Geneva Kayak Center. Last weekend. The plan was to spend one day on the Menominee River working on skills in moving water (crossing eddy lines, etc.), and two days on Lake Superior working on open water coastal kayaking and leadership skills. Conditions in both venues "over delivered". Once on the water, we headed f...

Adventures here and there. Wednesday, May 14, 2014. For anyone who doesn't find reading the gory details of 6 days of paddling on the ocean along a beautiful coastline to be one of your very favorite things to do, you can jump straight to the pictures by clicking here. There's a superb coast path ( Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail. By the time the trip arrived, John had it on his calendar as a "5 star training." That was somewhat disconcerting, but I was pretty sure that John and Nige intended...

Sunday, April 20, 2008. Rock Gardens and Desert Islands, Mexico. Team "J" (John, Jim, Jay, and Jen), spent 6 fantastic days off the Pacific coast of Baja in early April, 2008.

Adventures here and there. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. The Kayakers are Coming! Convoluted nod to Tolkein there.). Pete, Mike and I stayed overnight Sunday instead of driving home after the ICE. Weather permitting, we had decided to head to Meyers Beach and paddle along the mainland sea caves. Nearing the southern shore, we could see a sea stack that had separated from the rest of the island in a vivid example of how these islands exist in a geological blink of an eye. What was left behind by the gl...

Along The Way: June 2010
http://onealpamn.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Adventures here and there. Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Rough Water, Zen, and Poise. Last weekend I took a Rough Water class with Geneva Kayak Center. The goal of the course is to gain experience for tidal conditions. Since tidal conditions are rather scarce in the upper Midwest, GKC uses rivers to provide eddy lines, moving water, and standing waves. Mark had to head back to Chicago Saturday night, so the rest of us found a Chinese restaurant, had a beer and dinner, and split up to crash early. This was the s...
