Boulder Creek and the Eagles

Here's some food for thought for those contemplating paddling on Boulder

Hi Scott! :-)
I still wonder, who would *want* to paddle on Boulder Creek east of 75th street?
When I paddled Boulder Creek, I think the takeout was at 39th street. Is there any
whitewater between 39th and 75th, moreover any WW east of 75th? ;-)
One of the weirdest WW runs ever! Putting in either at Eben G. Fine park or up a
little higher as the road goes up into the mountains, paddling though the park and
then behind a bunch of urban/suburban back yards, and taking out below a municipal
office park parking lot! (Where Jose Muldoon's paddler friendly pub used to be!) I
remember we spread our paddling gear all over the nicely mowed office park grassy
areas, but Jose Muldoon's power was out, so we despondently put all our now dry
paddling gear into bags and loaded it up, preparing to go find a place to get a beer
and a bite, and by the time we did the power was back on, and we had a nice beer and
a bite at Jose Muldoon's! :-)
Fun though! Just lousy scenery (except for those two cute girls in a backyard that
we got to meet!! :-) )
