Here's a quick video edit. I apologize for the crudeness of the edit and the music and lack of more footage and for not cutting in more pictures... but you know where to find the pictures and you can thank iMovie for the rest of the video cheesiness. And thank my girlfriend for putting up with another night of me sitting in front of my computer.

Friday, my crew got down around 2pm to meet the crew getting off the Meadow Creek, which is a steep, short tributary to the Lower Yough. We then visited Paul Schreiner at PS Composites. After a great time with Paul and picking up the C-squirt trophy and 2011 C-squirt "most fun" plaque, we were off to visit Jim Syner of JimiStyx.

Saturday, we all hooked up for a C-run of the North Branch of the Potomac featuring some glass boats, OC1s, C1s and Ocoee Chapelle, 11 year old in his second day in a C1. Pics here: https://picasaweb.google.com/mzakutan/2 ... MDWV43011#
Ocoee Chapelle, 11-year old C1er!
Half-way down the North Branch, we switched into Squirt boats at the Blue Hole parking lot area and commenced the Squirt Championships of the Known Universe(s). Great times by everybody and even a little down time. Pics here: https://picasaweb.google.com/mzakutan/2 ... ship43011#

Sunday, we split into groups. Some got on the North Branch again, others did the Savage. Mick Knox, Jeremy and myself got on the Top Yough at about 500 cfs plus inflow from Muddy. Pics here: https://picasaweb.google.com/mzakutan/TopYough5111#
