For my latest column entry (here), I paddled and it was extreme…ly safe.

Thanks for taking a look, and good to see everyone at the Saint yesterday!

Glad you enjoyed it. I definitely want to include some head-waters sections in the guidebook. I’d like to get the Prongs in there, but nothing decided yet. I appreciate the input!

First, I have a new entry for my online column with Canoe & Kayak Magazine that may be of interest. It mentions a few Ozark runs and a few Missouri boaters are in the pics–though its hard to see exactly who.

Also, I’m excited to report I’ve been hired by Falcon Guides to write the guidebook Paddling the Ozarks to be published in 2017.…Read more

I thought my column from last month about the Jacks Fork might be of interest to our local paddling community, posted here.

Another one also recently published about paddling Puerto Rico bio bays.

Thanks to all for the support and kind responses on the column!

Sorry for the delayed reply, I’m getting into the busy part of the semester.

Perfessor, I’m pretty sure I did a night run one time that felt like I was paddling on imperial stout.
