We had a really fun weekend playboating the West Fork of the Hood on Saturday, and hitting up Canyon Creek on Sunday. I felt really strong this weekend, and even though we weren't paddling anything too tough, I really worked on stroke placement and technique and paddled the best I think I ever have. I had never run Canyon Creek before and it was at a medium high flow, which was a perfect level in my opinion. The fun factor on that creek leaves you getting off the river with a perma-grin and leaves you wanting more.
