I began white water kayaking in 1967 and did the Middle Fork of the Salmon River, Selway in Idaho, the Gallatin and Stillwater in Montana in 1969 and many in eastern Canada. I am still kayaking . Back then, you had to build your own boat out of fibreglass using a club mold, or you did not get to go. They usually cost about $75 each to make and took a weekend. I still use my 30 year old fibreglass boat in the spring run off north of Kignston Ontario. I never did anythinglike the Stikine however.

12 years of boating, ran many flood stage rivers, but I wouldn't have run that. a man must know his limitations. great video.

I live at the bottom end of that river. Fastest river in North America you can bring a boat on. And it's miles wide at the bottom end.

that music had me grinding my teeth. What you're doing is incredible but by completely blanketing the scenes in music without being able to hear what's going on makes the audience feel really disconnected from the environment. The sound of raging waters is a sound that can't be withheld and shows how truly epic what you're doing is.

nice shot of the thaltan river at the end but I noticed a bit of portaging in the canyon

@RoyalMaine 8 жыл бұрын

Hey Terry, Which river at the end are you speaking of? If you are speaking about the Stikine river in video, I am pretty sure the portage was the team going back upstream for another stab at that monster eddy-hole spiraling counterclockwise. It seems the portage was dramatic effect - the kind of effect all to common with that crowd. Walt Blackader, Rob Lesser and other big time paddlers hung with the circle of mates in the film. Before his death on the South Fork of the Payette River, when faced with the impossible Walt Blackadar was purported to have said, "do it backwards." These guys are prone to that striking style. Nevertheless, they do portage.

A lot of water. I have done Costa Rica with 12 foot high waves, but they were much better behaved than these.

I am sure it was a breathtaking landscape to paddle the river through; of course, we will never know from this video since we never get to see any of it. Only closeup shots of paddling. Could literally be any river since that is all we see, so why make a point of naming it unless for overly sensationalized likes and cash?
