South Platte River at Fort Lupton – Northern Colorado Paddling

Subaru Outback and JKK Supernova kayak><br />
I haven’t paddled my JKK Supernova kayak since 2012 Missouri River 340 race. I decided that to rinse some Missouri mud off.</p>

About 2 miles upstream of Fort Lupton. The river was shallow, fast, twisty, stinky … Near perfect! I had a great workout.

Back to Fort Lupton.

I have paddled JKK Supernova starting at Fort Lupton several times this winter. It seems that my driving time from Fort Collins is about 45 minutes and is not longer than driving to Kersey below Greeley. I didn’t try to paddle my SUP since some spots were too shallow for a fin.


This is a diversion dam just below Fort Lupton. I’ve paddled the river between Fort Lupton and the confluence wit St Vrain Creek. There are 7 dams in this short section. Maybe, it’s a time to run it just for documentary purposes, certainly, not for recreation. It feels like a packrafting project.

SUP on South Platte River

November 3, 2012. Paddling Bark Expedition SUP on the South Platte River near Kersey, Colorado. Camera: GoPro Hero.

It was my first time with SUP on a river – a short, but intense upstream / downstream workout starting at the Kersey bridge. A nice weather and good river flow. You can find more picture from that paddling in Fitness Paddling blog.

I will be back on the South Platte with SUP or other boat. The winter paddling season is open.

Chase Jarvis Kicks Off His Sailing Adventure with Mike Horn in South Africa

Chase Jarvis Kicks Off His Sailing Adventure with Mike Horn in South Africa. Follow Chase on Twitter: twitter.com Follow Mike on Twitter: twitter.com Follow Chase’s blog: chasejarvis.com

See my images at momentsofnaturephotography.com In this video I compare raw and jpeg images. In this video I try to prove two points, that raw is not better than jpeg in general and that whether you use jpeg or raw should not depend on which gives better image quality but on whether or not you like to edit your photos.

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.

Mothership drops bowling balls over South Dakota!

14 May

Extreme weather photographer Chad Cowan documented this other-worldly storm structure in South Dakota on July 23, 2010! Earlier in its life-span, the storm dropped a RECORD-BREAKING hail stone near the town of Vivian! The monster hail measured a whopping 8 INCHES IN DIAMETER and weighed just under TWO POUNDS!!! Check out Chad’s website for more information and licensing (prints available) www.chasethestorms.com and www.tornadovideos.net for extreme weather video and news!

Facebook.com – Become a Fan! Twitter.com – Follow Us! Get the deets on how Daniel Radcliffe is stirring things up in his new movie. It’s right now. Hey guys! Thanks for checking out to ClevverTV. I’m your host Dana Ward coming at you from our Hollywood headquarters. Today we’ve got news on Daniel Radcliffe’s upcoming movie. He’s set to star in the indie comedy flick, The Amateur Photographer, playing just that, a young amateur photographer!!! Thanks to Variety for the 411, Daniel’s character goes around his small New England town documenting the most intimate moments of his neighbors’ lives. Of course, the resulting photography causes a bit of backlash from the local authorities but there might be a little good in the form of a community revolution that also goes down. It’s cool that this takes place in 1970 so we won’t be seeing any high-tech digital photos being Twitpic-ed; we’ll be dealing with old school film. Love it. So that’s the latest on The Amateur Photographer and its star Daniel Radcliffe. Be sure to follow us on Twitter — that’s @Clevvertv — for more movie updates just like this one. Dana Ward here and as always, we’ll see you soon with more entertainment news!
