Trancura_River_Lower




Each day consists of two sessions. The daily schedule is brutal- wake up, eat, kayak, eat, nap, kayak, nap, eat, drink, sleep. Repeat. Like it says on my t-shirt, Life is Good. If my secret retirement plan is executed successfully, I will just stay here forever.
Session one, we  went out to an eddy line and did technique drills all morning. Session 2, we ran the Lower Trancura, which is an easy class 3. Some good surf waves. Nice volume, approx 4ooo at take out. This is considered low for this river.
Sorry, no whitewater photos yet. No good opportunities today. Here are some lodge pictures, and one of Volcano Villarica, which you see from everywhere. Notice it is smoking.
