Fall is the best time to paddle. Cooler temps mean longer more enjoyable trips on the water without overheating. 🏞️ 🏕️

Arrived 12:18pm to move stuff to high ground

River was flooding but I didn’t expect it to come up so fast. The river rose 2-3 ft in 10-15minutes with thick ice sheets racing in. I had 30° water up to my thighs in my boots with ice sheets that almost knocked me over they were moving so fast. Couldn’t get video of that. I just barely got out my truck was sitting in a foot or so of moving water why?
