Nehalem River trip on a President's Day Weekend Trip to the Oregon Coast. Jennie, Megi, and Marie joined in kayaks on a misty day. Aki and I took the double IK and managed to flip in the hole at Salmonberry Drop. We had no issues the rest of the trip but elected not to run Nehalem Falls. Jennie, Megi, and Marie all had good runs.
Thinking it would help to keep Aki coming on future winter paddling trips, despite our swim, I gave him the option to order whatever he wanted for dinner. He ordered the crab and the halibut at a restaurant in Newport.
