I think its more like, there is no water so lets go climb.

Random Dave · « **Reply #21 on:** November 02, 2005, 01:58:13 PM »

yeah, climbing is definately my backup option for when there's no rain (and for when I blindly paddle into box canynons and realise that I can't paddle out again).

defintaly my second choice, all depends on the weather as said above but i do enjoy climbing im sorry paddling takes major 1st place

I dont think it matters

Fat Alan · « **Reply #24 on:** November 03, 2005, 03:50:44 PM »

have you ever tried padding with a lead rack? or climbing with a canoe? i'd say it matters a lot!

nick · « **Reply #25 on:** November 03, 2005, 03:59:45 PM »

you'd need quite a big crack to place a canoe

Norm · « **Reply #26 on:** November 03, 2005, 04:02:13 PM »

And quite cold water to use the lead rack!

what you can do is go down a white water river find a gorge, then an eddie tie your canoe onto the rocks climb up then pull your canoe up, think it should be an option for maybe a joint trip etc

spray decks are for whimps anyway

I've had to belay a canoe as it down climbed a 90m scree slope this summer.

Come to think of it, I climbed up there with it in the first place, wearing a spraydeck.

that was very clever of the canoe!

blondie · « **Reply #32 on:** November 03, 2005, 08:23:53 PM »

could you not ride it down that slope

Ali* · « **Reply #33 on:** November 04, 2005, 09:52:07 AM »

well you could, but i dont think i would like too to many rocks to get holes and scrtaches which would not be very fun or good

I only use the cleverest canoes.

Sliding down that slope would have been fun, but would have involved death. One guy almost terminated himself just climbing down.

a fun way to go....

finally paddlers realising climbing is better than sitting in a piece of plastic....

climbing and kayaking are totally different sports so one cant really argue which is better, there both great!

Ali* · « **Reply #39 on:** November 06, 2005, 05:28:15 PM »

well saying that i would go canoeing if it was raining well i possibly lied a little as i was at bowles today and it rained lots and lots, but was fun!!!
