I am exhausted.
Kayaking partner in crime, Devon, and I kayaked the Waihopai River today. New water that I found in the guide book yesterday afternoon. We uncovered an absolute gem of a river. A barrel-of-monkeys to paddle, tight, and just challenging enough, with some good class III+ paddling. I filled the 64mb memory card on my camera with great shots of this beautiful valley. Right now I need to eat and sleep, but I'll post more about the wonderful Waihopai (pronounced why-ho-pie) River tommorrow evening.
For now heres a teaser shot of what is probably the most picturesque hydro-electric dam I've ever seen. What a place to start the run...
