Title: RIVER PICS FROM 5/24-5/25
Post by: MADSKILLZ on May 26, 2008, 05:48:38 PM
Here are some pics from our trip at needles. Had a good time hanging with Brad and Kyle. The weather sucked on Sat. Got rained on down in Havasu while we were at the channel. Sun day started out kinda cold but turned out to be a good day! :)

We drove down to the sand bar which was closed so we headed all the way down to the channel in havasu. The crazy eights made it all the way down there to find warlock pleshed out and still had his boat on the trailer.

London Bridge....it was raining, notice the water on the bow.

Man, Wanted to hook up with you guys. Freaking boat gods were not kind to me. Saturday blew the hydraulic diverter line in Copper Canyon and sprayed myself in the face with hydraulic fluid! That was fun and tasty.  And Diverter was stuck in up position, so al way back was full roost.Then spent Sunday morning fixing that, which took forever. Needless to say, still had a blast Sunday afternoon. Heres a few of my pics. These are from a test run in Moabi on Saturday evening before heading into Havasu.

Brad ran baffels..... When I had my hondo I ran open pipes without water and had no problem. I even bonzied past the cops and they didnt seem to care. There was a guy in a cp running zummies last weekend.
