On Saturday morning (June 9, 2012) I managed to paddle 12 miles in JKK Supernova kayak. I started from the Sunrise Area south of the Soldier Dam and paddled to the South Bay. I was returning back with a strong and gusty wind and drove home just before the High Park fire plume was visible over Fort Collins. The fire started about 6 am when I was still paddling..

Pictures below were shot on Sunday evening from the Centennial Road under strong wind conditions (camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark II with24-105mm lens on a tripod). They are available for licensing as royalty free digital downloads starting with $2 or/and as prints from my stock photography portfolio.
