Colorado Photos: Homestake Creek Race and Glenwood Springs Play Spot

I rolled into the Vail area in time to get a couple practice runs in the day before the Homestake Creek race - the kickoff event for the Vail Teva Mountain Games. This event is touted as one of the premier grade V creek races in the country and draws some of kayakings best professional athletes.

Todd Anderson came in second.


Andrew Holcombe pulled in a close 3rd place.


Eli Loper on Piece of Shit - can you see why it's called that?


P.O.S. is just below the finish line of the race course.


GLENWOOD SPRINGS

recently made a play park on the Colorado River. There are a variety of waves with potential for almost any move.

There's room for lots of boats here.


Me catching some air time.


Hoping for some raft carnage.


River surfing attempt #1.
