Lower Colorado River Canoe Trip

Canoe Camping trip down 43 miles of the Lower Colorado River from Walter's Camp near Blythe, to Squaw Lake.

We're all volunteer instructors for the Red Cross Canoeing program in Sacramento, CA. Find out more about that program here: http://redcrosscrc.org/canoeing
Most of the video portions are of me paddling Patrick's Bell Wildfire solo canoe (it looks bigger than it really is due to the wide angle video). We switched off between all the canoes over the four days of paddling. The other canoes were a 16 foot Dagger Legend (Ruth), 16 foot Mad River Explorer, and a 19 foot Wenonah Jensen (The River Hippo).
The battery died prematurely on my GoPro Hero HD camera, so I don't have any video of the last couple of days. That is one cool little camera, but I'm a little concerned about battery life and the audio is just plain not usable IMHO. I'll get an extra battery, but I think I need another non-waterproof camera for doing some video with better audio quality.
