"I honestly think I am a better, safer kayaker now and feel much more confident about my long term tripping goals than before the course.  You are both amazing and kind teachers."

Kayakers Outside Window at Snug Haven Resort - Storm Gathering 2008 - photo by Charlotte Jacklein
Saturday Oct. 10, 2009 - On a sunny and colour-laden Thanksgiving
- hard to imagine that for two weeks we've been in gales, 3 metre waves and a humbling train of storm cells complete with squall lines, thunder and lightning. The Bay decided to let us know who's the boss - and timmy for one got the message loud and clear. 

Our Storm Gathering next weekend is near full! There are still a couple of beds, some tent spots and day passes - we've kept the discount to encourage the last minute club. If you were imagining a really fun end to the paddling season - let us know asap, I think we can give you that - it's one of those events where you'll kick yourself after in the bum (a good party trick) if you made the foolish decision to not come. 

All boats/gear are on winter clearout pricing - we're open 'til monday evening - and then by chance or appointment after that. We're still renting - cause this is still the best time of year to be out there in my wee brain - but we might ask a few pointed questions like "do you know what yer doin'?" And....."have you packed your woolies?"

Nootka Sound BC
Right after the Stormy Gathering - 7 of us squallions are flying to the outer west coast
for a trip we've been long dreaming of. We'll be "wet dropped" off a coastal freighter in Nootka Sound and the plan is to paddle, camp, get wet and surf, paddle, camp, get wet and surf, dryout - then camp and paddle and surf and get wet some more. I was a guide out there in the late 70's - back when a $300. R5 River Runner was fine to paddle and as long as you knew a bit more than the clients - you were ok. Whatever happened to that world - seemed simpler then.
