FUN STUFF    river tales

Mary:

   Mary Liskow, second in command here at Blue Mountain,  could write a whole book on Doug.

   Our Bike Shuttle Tale of Woe (Or Was That Woo?)  A little more BMO history.

Kris:

   Kris Wolpert, who works here at Blue Mountain, occasionally writes about his paddling adventures and we're not sure why helicopters usually enter his stories.

 

   Rescue Me  This tale occured about 1990.

   The Pocomoke  Stuck in the Swamp.

Pat's River of the Month Collection:

   Pat Reilly is a local paddler who just loves to paddle what he calls "Virgin Waters", streams or section of streams that are new to him.  He also likes to paddle and race fast kayaks and canoes. Another passion is writing about these adventures. These stories have been published as "River of the Month" articles in the Canoe Club of Greater Harrisburg's newsletter, "Streamlines".  Most of these articles serve as stream guides and cover many streams that Ed Gertler didn't include in the standard reference book of Eastern and Central Pennsylvania streams: "Keystone Canoeing".  Some of the articles include tales of "slight misadventures" and usually include a few safety tips on avoiding like circumstances. Other articles address tips on equipment, skills, and other useful knowledge.
