    1. Things we need to add after the 2010 trip:
      -Jay gets his rocks off, or Jay makes the earth move.
      -Bryan runs Great Devil backwards.
      -Bryan gracefully capsizes at the Trout Falls portage.
      -Jay & Rod run Otter Rapids loaded, or at least the first 75 metres.
      -Bryan nearly meets his maker at Rock Trout Rapids.
      -Jay & Rod and the heated argument below Rock Trout Rapids. Bryan's diplomatic ruling.
