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? ;-)

This is the same question I've been asking myself lo these many years.
Evidently, people like to experience the natural area and see the cliffs,
and floating through is the lazy way of doing so. I can't say I blame them
for wanting to see the area, curiosity is natural thing. However, just
because they want to see the place doesn¹t mean they have any right to do so
without my permission.



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

Well, I'm somewhat further east... But your point remains. No whitewater at
all.

we got to meet!! :-) )

Someday soon, I hope.
