Nice shots. Is that the Boulder Garden? I have only been on the McNasty once and I have to say that looking at your photos, it does look better (ie not nearlly as scary as I thought it would) in high water. I didn't think it would, but the lines are clear and there is plenty of water to paddle in.

Like Carlito said. Must get out boating soon. This having areal job thing is tiering (tyering?).

Yup, the Boulder Garden.  Good medium level rather than high.  Great trippy trip all the same, big up to Caoimhe, Dave and Mark for popping their Macnasty cherries!

And yes, come boating soon!  Carl and I are going on Sat.

Yeah that day was the only time I ever went chase-boating in a car!  Lost my boat half way down the Glenmacnass, drove to the picnic site on the Avonmore just in time to jump in after it as it floated past!   :D

Colin, see ya Sat!

Medium eh? Still looks easier than in the low conditions that I ran it in.

Which day this weekend and where? Text or call me or even reply here as I now have Broadband and can check the board regular like again.

Did you miss me??
