Draper Boys Race Update/Pictures

This year's race was a success with the usual winners and losers. Congrats to the Brinton Clan for bringing home the gold painted plastic and tshirts. Much fun was had by all, can't wait for next year....or in a few years when we are all together again.

Kayaking the Green



Here we are at the put-in just below Flaming Gorge Dam. The weather cleared up just long enough to make a run.  In the second picture you can see Liz getting a little water in the face. The bottom right picture is of John. It was a fun trip, we will have to do it again next year.

Scotty and Kyle on the Mighty Jordan

Me and Scotty at the parking lot before we put in on the Jordan.
The put in was pretty telling of how the rest of the river was going to be.
Scotty surfing one of the bigger waves on the river.
Steve told us there were a few little spillways. This was the biggest and it was not exactly little. Keep in mind that Scotty's boat is around 10 feet long.

Draper Boys Downhill


The DBD did not take place at the usual time and I propose that we still schedule a race this month so that the tradition can remain alive. This race should be called the DBD Scorched Earth Series. Let me know what you think. Without this race life is boring (as illustrated by my dog).

Our friend John, the Scientist


I recently caught up with John at his lab. It was good to see him hard at work unlocking the powers of plants. Keep up the good work John.
