Happy New Year everybody! In the picture above: partially frozen Horsetooth Reservoir just before sunrise on December 29, 2015. Camera: Sony Alpha II with Sony/Zeiss FE 24-70mm lens on a tripod. That was a cold morning! During recent winter days in Colorado I am doing more hiking than paddling.

These are pictures from my last paddling in 2014. I paddled my Sea Wind canoe on December 27 on Horsetooth Reservoir 3 miles from the South Bay to Quarry Cove. The Quarry Cove just before sunset is my favorite photography spot on the Horsetooth. When I was paddling back after sunset ice started to form in the entry to the Inlet Bay.

I added a story by Katie Pfefferkorn to the 3 years of Missouri River 340 Race series posted in my Fitness Paddling blog. Katie paddled MR340 three times solo finishing in 98, 58, and 50 hours.
There are not so many women in that ultra marathon race. Male paddlers dominate. However, I just noticed that half of 3 times finishers (Bryan Hopkins, West Hansen, Christina Glauner, Chuck and Di McHenry, Katie Pfefferkorn) are girls. They must more persistent in that madness than boys. I would spoil this perfect statistcs a little bit if I add myself.

March 2008. Not too much activity in this blog, but training and racing on the South Platte River I covered in my companion Fitness Paddling blog. I paddled mostly WSBS Thunderbolt-X kayak, but I was tried Spencer X-treme canoe.
