Mis-Adventure!
Well i will share a little tale of an adventure to my fellow comrades, it goes a little something like this.
Me and 3 other mates decided to go White water kayaking in queenstown, We kayaked the Kawarau river, Grade 3 to 3+, we kayaked the run at 250 cumecs, which is a pretty good water level and what-not.
We were all doing good in the rapids, then it came to dog leg, the famous grade 3+, I had kayaked it before, and did it all good! But something happened.
We all went down, Got to the end of it nearly then my friend came out of his kayak his deck imploded.. yeah right.. but anyway. so his kayak was floating down, so my friend went after the kayak and me and another mate went after our mate. he broke his finger, but was fine, then my mate who went after the kayak came out of his boat and then lost his boat but held onto my other mates kayak. he was stuck in an eddy (look it up if you dont udnerstand) so i went over, tied my boat to the spare boat, then got to a cliff of thorns and climbed up it, took a good 45 minutes to get out. we all made it out. but the reason why we were so scared when this was happening was that there was a grade 5-6 rapid a bit further down.. In another words, we would of died if we went down there, No exageration.
That was a fun time, Afterwards I drank my nerves away and hit the town.
Anyone else been on adventures?
