eastern sierra

Jumping into that barely above freezing water is insane!

that expression on Shirks face is proof positive that the water was in fact crazy cold.
the dude is part polar bear. Here are shots from years past displaying how impervious SHirk is to cold water.

Running from a bear at Upper Twin...

Had the same experience about that time but it was on the lower twin.
managed to fire off a photo over the shoulder in full flight.
Wonder if it was the same bear who just had a thing for kayakers?
does this head look familiar?

GREAT REPORT!!!   I absolutely love the Eastern Sierras.   Its one of my favorite places in hte world.    I never thought to kayak the streams up there, but you guys sure proved it can be done successfully.

...and i think it's tough to plan a three day'r in my car.  YOU GUYS were on it!
Cold and hooking fish!!  Looks like fun(whenINtheSUN!)
Thanks for the port&pics!!

Right on Terry! Looks like a great time was had be all. I miss the high sierra fishing days of my August backpacking trips. After reading your post, it really makes me want to go back!

CHEERS!

Bad Ass!  This is the best damn kayak fishing report I've seen on the site in a while.  Maybe you could just rub it in a little more.   Thanks again for posting all the pics.  JTF
