ONEIDA RIVER TRIP

This past Friday we took a few of our students up to the Oneida Narrows. We couldn't have asked for better weather, it was hot and the water felt so good. The Oneida is a class II river great for teaching beginners. It is calm, all roadside, and has great little eddies to practice things such as ferrying, eddy turns and peel outs in.


Those that were there with Jackson and I were Wynn Ormand and his 13 year old son Liam. We also had 14 year old Parker Measom along with us, and my wife cruised along in an inflatable kayak. We did two laps on it and had an awesome time. Hopefully the flows stay good enough so that Rapid Progression can organize a river lesson there in the near future.
