Multiday kayaking Grand CanyonDay 1.  Day one was a big one for me because I just don’t get to go on trips where everyone is paddling one of our boats let alone everyone was paddling the same boat.  It was also a really cool experience to see how well the Remix XP performed for everyone and how perfect it is for this type of trip through rapids and long stretches of flat water.  Pushing off from shore and feeling the stability that the boat had with 100+ pounds of gear loaded into it felt great.  Yes it was another proud designer moment.

Grand Canyon PanoramaDay 1.  ”Clean up your stuff before you go on to do something else!”  My mom told me that when I was a kid and I am still paying the price for not learning that lesson.  Piles of dishes still show up in my kitchen sink at home but when you are camping in the cold it is much harder to clean your dishes after they have frozen over night and that will piss you off because then its much harder to make coffee since you only have a few pots to start with unlike my collection at home so that I can go a week without cleaning.

Driving down to Flagstaff with the home team.Well today we are driving up to the Put In for our trip through the Grand Canyon.  I was lucky enough to have my home team along for the ride and a quick glimpse at Monument Valley, and the South Rim so they could see where I was going to be for the next couple weeks.  It was a perfect day to drive down to Flagstaff and meet up with the river team.

Self Support Grand Canyon

by Liquidlogic Ladies Lounge

Lisa MarieNext week I will be paddling for 13 days on the Grand Canyon with a fun group of paddlers from Colorado, New Mexico, and Oregon. 10 guys, and 6 badass women! The women are Lana Young-Hood River, Tammy Ritchey-Colorado Springs, Susan Hollingsworth-Portland, Jenn Peterson-Portland, Tina Swan-Denver, and Lisa Marie-Salida.The last few months I have been pondering on what I should bring and how I should pack. 2 years ago I went with the Liquidologic self support crew on the Grand. It was a trip of a lifetime and that is why I’m coming back to the deep ditch for more fun!
As a virgin kayak self support I learned from Boyce, Woody, Ted, Kelly, Will, and Klause the best way to pack the Remix XP, to be comfortable, and enjoy the canyon at its best in Jan. of 2010. Thank you guys!
