Kayaking in the Chetco




My parents took us up the Chetco to kayak in the river. It was warm, in the 80's compared to the cool coastal temperature of the high 60's and low 70's. As desert rats, we enjoyed the cool breeze and the cold water. I even managed to get a little work out, kayaking up the river a bit and back down. The girls enjoyed going down a mini-rapid, can be seen by the photo's. Next year we will plan a 1/2 day trip down the Chetco River where we will encounter a couple of bigger rapids. It should be fun.

You know, this is the first trip to Brookings where we did NOT eat at the Pizza Deli! :) I totally forgot about eating there. We were too busy eating Elk taco's! :)
