that pertains to what goes on in the hidden arenas in which we play. This site is not intended to be a place for
people to get ideas who don't already participate in these activities. If you have never experienced the arenas
mentioned here don't use this site to give you ideas of a way to go and participate without laying the foundation
that is necessary. This site shows pictures of an end product. Years of friendships, dedication, tests, joy, loss, etc. Steepcreeks.com is in no way responsible for your choices in any matter (on or off the water). If something looks as if it is advice on this page, think of it more as a consideration. You make your own decisions. If you see carnage on this page and think that this is all part of the sport please think again. Carnage is entertaining after the day is over and everyone is safe and sound. These are experiences that have made us question our own abilities and reconsider where our own skills lie. Many of the rapids/waterfalls have a very fine line and can be run in one place only, a certain way, and at a specific level. Running large, difficult waterfalls/rapids has the strong potential of doing permanent damage or drowning participants. |
| "I have learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in
the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet a success unexpected
in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal
laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in
his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings. In proportion
as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude,
nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost;
That is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them." Henry David Thoreau |
