Gav Winsborrow (June trip Helper)

Favourite river: Wolfs gorge, Rosanna.  A fast and furious ride with barely a moment to catch your breath before the river drops out of sight around one of the many bends in this deep gorge. With each corner comes a mixtures of emotions, from apprehension to pure exhilaration.  As these emotions build, so too does the realisation that it is near impossible to stop as the river carries the paddler through the gorge on a conveyor belt of ice cold water.  In one of the few eddies with a capacity greater than 1 kayak, Martin turns to me and asks if we really need 3 paddlers for this section - the apprehension is strong in this one! The answer is of course 'yes', coupled with 'you'll be fine'.  The gorge culminates in a final section with a large log spanning the river.  A wave train approaches the log and the exit to the Wolfs Gorge.  On approaching the log, a peak of the wave train elevates the unsuspecting paddler to give them the brief, distinct feeling that stomach armour would've been a good idea.  A fortunately positioned trough beneath the log allows the paddler to feel the breeze on their face as the log passes by above them.  With familiarity, the gorge becomes a predictable journey. Stoppers, waves and mid-stream eddies can be used to gracefully carve from left to right through gratifying sections of steep, boulder filled, grade IV rapids. A definite 'must' for anyone visiting the Landeck area.
