I'm by no means a thrill seeker. No white water for me. In fact, I paddle on still water most of the time.
Oh I understand. We paddled across Harlan County Dam when was was a teenager. We had to get the canoe back so I helped Pop canoe it in a nasty storm. It caused white caps and the waves was like 2 feet high. It was a pretty intense experience during a nasty T-storm that rolled through. That pretty much cured me of doing anything like white water rafting and what not.
The other thing that I always talked about was to canoe Lake Powell. Obviously not the whole thing. Just a nice section of it as when the water is lower, you find the Indian glyphs on the rock walls sometimes.
