Thanks, Bill for the great link. A fabulous photo/video essay! Who was the
photog? Also, thanks for the diversion . . . Robin "Bill Tuthill" wrote in message ... Here are some excellent pictures and commentary (not mine, 9 pages total) from a Grand Canyon trip last month: http://nccreeks.com/grand/ Since this newsgroup is mostly echo-noise between two guys now, I doubt this announcement will overburden their server. |

Leland Davis is the author and photographer, I believe.
He appears to be the author of a river guidebook to N Carolina. Socemdog wrote: Thanks, Bill for the great link. A fabulous photo/video essay! Who was the photog? Also, thanks for the diversion . . .

I know who Leland is - one of the great extreme boaters from Western North
Carolina. I know he wasn't in raft!! "Bill Tuthill" wrote in message ... Leland Davis is the author and photographer, I believe. He appears to be the author of a river guidebook to N Carolina.

I know who Leland is - one of the great extreme boaters from Western North Carolina. I know he wasn't in raft!! Are you sure that's not Northern West Carolina? Au contraire, the guy rowing the big Chub seems to be the narrator, and he never appears in a picture until page next6.html, standing in front of the Thunder River in a picture entitled "leland..." BTW, the Thunder River is one of only a few rivers in the world that flows into a creek, Tapeats Creek. |

(BTW: he's wearing a beard in those pictures) He's definately into rafting as well! Considering everything he's paddled so far, I'm not at all surprised by him rafting. :-) Wilko -- Wilko van den Bergh wilko(a t)dse(d o t)nl Eindhoven The Netherlands Europe ---Look at the possibilities, don't worry about the limitations.--- http://wilko.webzone.ru/ |

Hey Blakely, I don't mind using rubber for other things...
(Nah, not that! ;-)) ....such as wrist gaskets on my paddling jacket! But actually paddling such a floating undercut? Not for some time to come! :-) Good to see some familiar faces here! :-) -- Wilko van den Bergh wilkoa t)dse(d otnl Eindhoven The Netherlands Europe ---Look at the possibilities, don't worry about the limitations.--- http://kayaker.nl/ |

I still post as Railtramp, but as it is an AOL account, the only newsgroup support is via Google. I do most of my reading on the company account and will occaisonally post from here. Normally, I try to keep the same signature lines, but I got lazy on that last one. Where are you at these days? You were headed to Hong Kong last time we touched base. At least you are more out of harms way than you were in the Congo. Planning the winter lottery draws for rafting trips. I will need late summer dates if I apply since we will be doing a midsummer vacation trip to Finland. So looking forward to that. I will take some time between the holidays and send you an nice long email at your yahoo address.
