Rafting the Truckee

A bunch of us lazily rafted down the Truckee River while in Tahoe. Tim decided to be our nature photographer and captured these pictures of the event. Thanks Tim!

Julie has had bad rafting/canoeing experiences...looks like this one was better!

Hey padre, it looks like you're missing part of your paddle; did you break the cardinal rule of Truckee River rafting and use your paddle as a push rod to dislodge yourself from a perilous rock?

joel. great observation. in fact, it is just a little stub of an oar. i think it is part of what was meant to be a bigger one! in any event... i wasn't much help in rowing. i figure the river continues to push you along.. so as long as you keep your hands and feet inside.. not too much can go wrong. i mostly just enjoyed the ride ;D
