KAYAKING FLAMING GORGE



We put our kayaks in at Sheep Creek Marina and spent three nights out on Flaming Gorge.  Great place to paddle and had great weather until the last morning when we had to do a little paddling in the rain.  The pictures below are not in order.  

Getting the kayaks loaded.


Our first camp spot.

Our meet up place and where we got ready to kayak the next day.

Finally getting launched.

This ewe sheep was pretty aggressive when she saw Zeph.  She finally allowed us to camp in her area.

Our first campsite.

Making afternoon coffee.

 River shoes.
 
An Osprey on a nest.  We saw lots of these all through our trip.

Rock formations along the shore were always catching our eye.

Connie's paddle framing this shot.

Pretty views were seen all the time.

A serious paddler.

Bill and I try and do some early morning paddles, leaving in the dark.

Our second campsite where Connie and I set up our tent.

Early morning paddle.

Just some views during our paddle.




The dog just loves to go after sticks when thrown in the water.


View from our second campsite.

Leaving on our last day.

My favorite picture of the trip so far.

Lots of sheep along the shorelines.

More strange formations.


Paddling back to the marina in a little drizzle with Bill antagonizing the dog.
