| - | ...was like being in an episode of "Fear Factor"... if your fear is being completely, 100% head to toe covered in flying instects! I don't know how it was for the morning crew, but at 1pm when we left the Guide put-in heading for Hovander, we immediately ran into a mass of flying instects that was so thick they completely covered us. They were in our eyes, mouths, noses, it was a good time. We could not look ahead at all or they would fly into our eyes, so had to look down, and just take momentary glances ahead to make sure we weren't about to run into the bank, logs, etc. It was not a good way to paddle. We had to take it VERY slow for nearly 3 miles of this insect invasion. | + | **ynotocsalev <tonyvelasco@…>** \\ |
