The water turned on at 10:00, and we headed downstream around 10:30. I started off with a swim on the very first rapid. I wasn’t paying attention and flipped on a rock as I was grabbing my camera for a picture. The water was only knee deep, so I was quickly back in my boat with little more than a bruised ego. I was glad I had the drysuit on.
We worked our way down to the surf wave at Henry Bridge Road. I did my usual side surfing flip at this rapid, but each year I last a little longer. This year, it was about 45 seconds before the inevitable flip.

No video this year, but some of my prior flips in the Henry Bridge Road hole:
