"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiideeee
eeeeeeeeehooooooooooooooo," said Mr Hankey, as the venturesome kayaker paddled past him. -
Dang! Ya stole my idea :)
I've long thought the fastest way to Long Beach from the valley was via the river. Moves a heck of a lot faster. And isn't that irony? It's a freshwater river - yet it's illegal to access it.

i prefer for it to be illegal less people... besides you probably wont get in that much trouble for doing that anyway
-
i would love to do that trip in my kayak.... great video

The LA River could be seen as the heart of LA. It flows through our communities and to the ocean we all enjoy and love. Unfortunately, the LA River suffers from stormwater pollution. To learn how to protect the LA River and ocean from pollution, check out our videos or lastormwater.info

Damn dude bold! I would never in my life do no shit like that. I drive past the L.A. River on the 10 fwy everyday when i'm at work and just the sight scares me. But I see birds, frogs and the graffiti art. How da hell do you get down there n e way?

The easiest place to access the river is near the Sepulveda Dam, but it is technicaly illegal to go in the river. I am working to make such access legal.
