Where Am I?

Paddling Slocan Lake (day 1)

I like to geek out while having real experiences. I maintain an extensive GPS database from my hikes, bikes, runs, and skis dating back to 2008. Feel free to follow the georss feed, explore the map above or download the GPS tracks below.

Started out with a very calm lake (wavy glass), but the wind and waves built over the course of the day. At the end, we were facing whitecaps, waves swamping the mid-boat, and a few times where we needed to do some sketchy tacking. Fortunately, camp was on the near side of Nemo Creek, as the waves + the creek outflow created some sketchy looking conditions. We made it without a capsize!
