River Dochart

A wet and windy paddle on the Dochart with Rodger, Jo, Grant and Winston

 It was a bit breezy on Loch Lubhair heading towards the start of the river

 Winston bailed from my boat to spent some time with Grant

 Watching the world go by

 The person having the best time on the river, is the one with the biggest smile. In this case Jo

AWWSR

A cold couple of days playing with some 'Advance White Water Safety and Rescue' techniques on the River Leny. Heavy snow and minus 6, perfect conditions for swimming around in some rivers!!!!
