We lost a paddle today on upper Clear Creek in the Klamath drainage. If anyone finds a Werner Player bent shaft in the creek or on the Klamath, my friend will offer a reward

Out of curiosity what rapid did he lose it at? We were rather surprised at how high and rowdy the run was yesterday too.

On the rapid with the Tree coming in from the right. we actually lost the paddle as it floated through the big Jumble about two rapids down. Flow was 900 (on Indian Creek) when we put on and it was a Spicy Meatball! But really fun. The commitment rapids were intimidating but went cleanly.

Super fun flows for sure, we had a swimmer early on that motivated us to pay more attention. The last rapid sure is epic now with the big change :)

I thought it had changed! But wasn't the line always down the left side in the first drop and then the far right for the second and then hold your breath for the big hit? Maybe it was different, I can't remember any rapids, ever.

By the way, that paddle has orange blades with stickers.

Yeah but it used to be a boof on left, far right, punch punch punch through three holes. We ran it left/right of center/drive right. Paddle is probably in the ocean by now :)
