After two weeks on the Stikine with the rest of the Sick-Line crew I finally flew home after almost a year of travels up and down the American continent. The Stikine is one of the best rivers I’ve ever paddled, almost 100km, 100 big water rapids, 3 to a few hours on the river, you …

Remembering summer, beautiful BC!

Cispus River, Washington State
Late into the summer after most rivers in the PNW are out of water, one awesome run is just dropping into its prime. The Cispus is a great run that is inaccessible for a lot of the year due to high water and snow covering the pass to get there. It is located in a vast, sasquatch …

Chasing Rain
Unlike the biblical rains of last year, this summer has seen the usual low low levels more often associated with the UK’s summer. There has been the occasional day of drizzle, but nothing to really bring the rivers into condition for extended periods of time. Nevertheless, a combination of keeping a close eye on the …
