I got an offer to run the Green River Gorge (or the lower half anyway) midweek last week. I have been itching to spend a bit more time in a whitewater kayak, a craft I have been not spending too much time in but would like to spend more. I borrowed a Jackson Karma again, and it performed predictably well. I like how the seat is easily adjustable for correctly setting trim in the boat. Just one wingnut and done.

| The wood is more in play at low water like this. Easy enough to avoid, but now you have to work at it. |

| Testing resurfacing capabilities. |

| A bit of surfing happened. |
 |
| Splat! |
 |
| Note: party waves in holes don't ever end well. |
 |
| But the Karma rolls nicely. |
