Otter Bar 2009 CZlhaZiiZg '%%-HZVhdcl^i]'%%.=^\]a^\]ih %.The winter of 2007 – 2008 produced above average precipitation with a normal snow pack and an unusual amount of low snow that stuck around for months. This increased the ground water dramatically as slow melting snow seems the best contributor to the aquifer. Our early season was very slow which has prompted us to make some changes in 09 (see dates). Late May June and July were booking well when all of California experienced a fierce lightening storm on June 21. This started numerous fires all over the state including several in our area. We began to be intermittently effected by smoke and after several weeks it was apparent that one of the fires was going to reach our property. We closed in mid July due to smoke, road closures, and the chaos of a dramatic increase in fire fighting crews and overhead. We remained closed for a month as the fire made it’s way to us and burned the length of our property above the road It was largely a “good” fire and was of low intensity. We were hugely relieved to have it go by us without the devastation of a hot “crowning” fire. We were very fortunate to have a great deal of help from the Federal government. At one point we had three engine crews on AD9<: the property, three pumps and five thousand feet of hose lay. This was an extremely stressful time as we never knew what changes to fire behavior could occur based on the weather. We survived with the forest still in great shape and reopened in mid August. Highlights this year was a visit from OUTSIDE’S “GO” Magazine who spent a week with us. Check out the feature on OBL the Spring ‘09 issue of “GO”. Also our first visit from the “First Descents” cancer camps was a wonderful experience for all. We had many full weeks and the boating, camaraderie, diving %- and food never seemed to be in short supply. We are so very appreciative of the positive attitudes of so many during the fire H:6HDC related events. This includes our fantastic staff, understanding clients and the firefighters themselves who were ever present and very supportive. >CG:K>:L DII:G76G L=6I>HDII:G76G4 WHAT The opportunity to develop white water kayaking skills at one of the nation’s premier schools.

Inauguration tomorrow and while the overall view is a bit harrowing it feels right to take I=:76GDC a close look inward and readjust personal habits towards health and conservation. Why would anyone want to come to Otter Bar in 2009? After all, aren’t we all cut- ting back and eliminating many “luxury” items? I suspect we fall into that category. As you might suspect, we are pondering this question at this moment. The fact is, we won’t blame you if you don’t show up. Many of you reading this (assuming anyone does) know what we are about so I will forgo the sales job. You know where to find us. We are offering fewer weeks this year (see dates) and I am miserable with the prospect of having to ski more days in April. Indeed, these will be hard times for Otter Bar but we feel fortunate to have little debt and we are secretly hopeful that we will remain a sanctuary for the legions of people who we have hosted multiple times over the last 28 years. We are not planning on going anywhere soon but Otter Bar may take on a different look as we weigh the options for survival. Maybe a time share trailer park? Rock star drug rehab center? Indian bingo casino? As usual we are making lots of improvements on a continual basis and you can be sure that the quality of the Otter Bar operation will only get better as long as we are at the helm. If you can fit us in we will be hugely appreciative! Please keep in touch. We had .6L:HDB:@6N6@>C<I::C6<:GH come to our TLC camp in June, 2008. TLC is a camp for 15-18 yr. olds who need and want to learn about kayaking skills, on and off the river. Tyler Bradt, David Hughs and Aaron Rettig were the group’s mentors. Discussions on and off the river proved insightful for everyone. The group began on the Trinity River, the same day the California fires began. A little smoke didn’t bother these tough kids! They boated as if things were perfectly normal. After a few days and a little ‘black lung’ they headed up to the Forks and camped at Nordheimer Campground and ran the most difficult runs the Salmon has to offer. The river was still high enough for them to run parts of Nordheimer and the Butler run a few times. After a day of kayaking, the kids were divided into groups to make dinner and clean-up. The day’s events were discussed and plans for the next day were made. The last two days of the camp were spent in the Trinadad area surf kayaking in the ocean. The kids were not only amazing kayakers, but the nicest and most respectful kids ever. I’ve come to the conclusion that kayaking just attracts good people! Andrew Barton, Jamie Boudreau, Will Burkhalter, Connor Dixon, Savannah Dixon, Robby Dohrn, Matt Larson, Tucker Samuelson, Ali Small. I::CA:69:GH=>E86BE"7><HJ88:HH %.96I:H DII:G76G=DHIH ADVANCED & INTERMEDIATE Classes run concurrently May 3-9 Æ;>GHI9:H8:CIHÉ May 10-16 In the Fall of 2008 we hosted our first week of “First Descents” cancer camps for young adults 18 – 30 years old. This was a tremendously uplifting experience INTERMEDIATE & BASIC INTERMED for all involved. We provided a full staff and in addition were assisted by a number May 17-23 of volunteers. The concept was to teach kayaking and provide a peak experience May 24-30 for the participants where all troubles were left behind, at least for one week. “First Descents” has been doing this for some time with great success and adding BASIC INTERMEDIATE May 31-June 6 the Otter Bar facilities and staff to the mix proved a good fit. Brad Ludden and Corey June 7-13 Nielsen head this program and the combination of their effusive optimism and June 14-20 the normal upbeat tenor of Otter bar’s operation was well received. We delighted June 21-27 in the poignant, happy, and very appreciative response from all the participants. Slipping down the river by day and great food and conversation by night is normal BASIC INTERMEDIATE & BEGINNING fare at Otter Bar but this particular booking prompted all of us to re-examine our June 28-july 4 July 5-11 individual realities and the overall atmosphere that was created was, well, sublime.

  • Genre Bending Narrative, VALHALLA Tells the Tale of One Man’S Search for Satisfaction, Understanding, and Love in Some of the Deepest Snows on Earth
    62 Years The last time Ken Brower traveled down the Yampa River in Northwest Colorado was with his father, David Brower, in 1952. This was the year his father became the first executive director of the Sierra Club and joined the fight against a pair of proposed dams on the Green River in Northwest Colorado. The dams would have flooded the canyons of the Green and its tributary, Yampa, inundating the heart of Dinosaur National Monument. With a conservation campaign that included a book, magazine articles, a film, a traveling slideshow, grassroots organizing, river trips and lobbying, David Brower and the Sierra Club ultimately won the fight ushering in a period many consider the dawn of modern environmentalism. 62 years later, Ken revisited the Yampa & Green Rivers to reflect on his father's work, their 1952 river trip, and how we will confront the looming water crisis in the American West. 9 Minutes. Filmmaker: Logan Bockrath 2010 Brower Youth Awards Six beautiful films highlight the activism of The Earth Island Institute’s 2011 Brower Youth Award winners, today’s most visionary and strategic young environmentalists. Meet Girl Scouts Rhiannon Tomtishen and Madison Vorva, 15 and 16, who are winning their fight to green Girl Scout cookies; Victor Davila, 17, who is teaching environmental education through skateboarding; Alex Epstein and Tania Pulido, 20 and 21, who bring urban communities together through gardening; Junior Walk, 21 who is challenging the coal industry in his own community, and Kyle Thiermann, 21, whose surf videos have created millions of dollars in environmentally responsible investments.

  • Otter Bar 2015
    OOTTERBAROTTTERBERBAARR LLODGELODGEE Online Newsletter 2014 Highlights 2015 Updates Letter from the Baron We’re getting our newsletter out a little earlier this year to let you know what’s going on this upcoming season and give you a recap of last year. Despite a slow season last year (see 2014 in review) we are forging ahead with some new ideas and a mountain of energy for 2015. Times change, and we have to always be willing to reinvent ourselves. We feel very lucky to have a choice in this matter. Our first level ‘reinvention’ is to offer some new programs and ideas to help keep Otter Bar as great as ever. For 2014 we will be offering a LEVEL 4 ACA WHITEWATER KAYAK INSTRUCTOR WORKSHOP with Ben Morton and Andy Round. Also on the schedule is a much asked for course, ADVANCED KIDS WEEK in June. (See article) We are purchasing many new kayaks including a small fleet of ‘SIT-ON-TOPS’ (Do It Nows by Fluid) for those who wish to learn whitewater skills without the pressure of rolling. Avid inflatable kayakers are also welcome. We had a group of ‘IK-ers’ (inflatable kayaks) in 2014 and the skills they learned were beyond their wildest expectations. We love what we do and wish to continue on as in the past but are also looking to include new options. We have painted the exterior of the lodge and most of the interior. Keeping up on the lodge maintenance is the never-ending story of our lives. We’re also thinking about doing a VRBO (Vacation Rental By Owner) for the lodge.

  • The Newsletter of the Hoosier Canoe Club Paddlers and Leaders, They Find More Ways to Make Quality Events for Us
    Volume 48, Issue 1 http://www.hoosiercanoeclub.org/ February 2010 Hello, HCC — Fall Meeting, Sunday November 15 Dan Valleskey One year past as Skipper, one more to go! We have a few new Chairmen, there is a complete list on the next page in this newsletter. I almost felt like I knew what I was doing as I went around the table soliciting Chairs. (Truth is, I just have a good board to work with.) Two significant programs are under way for 2010. First off, we will have even more help on the Fall Creek clean-up this year. Millersville at Fall Creek Valley is a new community organization forming. They are eager to address environmental concerns. I hope to attend one of their meetings in the next week or two. They are looking forward to helping us in June (the exact date will be set at the trips meeting on the 24th). Second, the HCC will be holding the charter for a new scout Venture Crew. The crew will operate independently of the canoe club for the most part, although a number of members are ready, willing, and able to jump in with instruction and leader- Dan Valleskey on Pigeon—October 2009 ship. If you want to learn more about this or maybe help out, please contact me. Our trips planning meeting will be taking place about the time you get this (January 24). I have had a sneak preview of a number of new trips and I think we will knock your socks off this year! Theresa Kulczak and Sue Foxx are really pulling out the stops for a good flatwater schedule.
