Default Truckee River near Nevada line

I just bought a Pentax W30. It's supposed to be waterproof to 3 meters for
up to two hours. So far I've only used it once while kayaking. A couple of
days ago I went searching for a geocache that was place on the only island
on my local lake (Cayuga Lake, one of NY's Finger Lakes). It was raining
the entire time and it was real nice knowing that the camera would survive
the wet conditions.


That's a nice digicam! I've seen great results from it and its predecessors.
Pentax is still the King of waterproof cameras.

BTW, I will be near the Truckee river in about a week but I'll be in South
Shore Lake Tahoe. I'm hoping to do a bit of kayaking while I'm there but
I'm not sure it'll work out.


The Truckee below Boca was still runnable yesterday! Amazing for a drought
year. Flow report currently unavailable, though. Good luck.
