And the water comes right off the bottom of the reservoir - that day it was 34F. Even in a seven mil wetsuit I was freezing my ass off. We were in the water about ten hours and by the time we reached the pullout I just about done.<BR/><BR/>It was a blast. I did it again the next year. I think I had the same exact expression on my face as you do in that picture - Get in, Sit down, and hang the hell on!
