September 13, 2012. Alpacka Yukon packraft on the South Platte River between Kersey and Kuner. Camera: Pentax Optio WG2

A couple days of rain increased water level in the South Platte River from around 100 cfs during dry summer to 2000 cfs at Kersey. I managed to catch the high water wave in this late afternoon bike-packraft trip: Kuner-Kersey-Kuner.
