A New Kind of Trip...

Hello everyone!

Daniel Robison here. Well, it's been a few weeks since our last trip, and here in Riverbluff we've been throwing around the idea for a completely new sort of trip; one not so much of long distance, but rather actual living. Primitive living, to be precise; a group of us would basically travel to a fairly remote area, and then basically set up camp there for a few days. We would have to build our own shelter, start our own fires, and possibly even catch our own food with nothing but what we find in the woods.

Over the course of the last several trips I've taken, I've found myself really wishing that I could stop and stay at some of the places that I've had to hurry by, as I was on a schedule. With this new kind of trip, staying and exploring and soaking in a place for all it is would be the whole point! Not only that, but it would allow us to take much more high quality pictures so that we could better share our experiences on the River with others. It's at least in the works; no dates, crews or locations set yet.

But never fear; we're certainly not ditching long-distance trips for good! I've heard rumors of someone that might attempt to break my kayaking speed record of the River sometime early this year, and if that's the case, I may be going out again, not to mention possibly a few others from Riverbluff!
