Just like him to say that. hahahahahhahahha Kirby -----Original Message----- From: Dave Bishop Subject: [Paddlewise] Estimating Elevation Without GPS I was recently paddling from the mothership Songhee in the waters of British Columbia's Broughton Archipelago. A fellow paddler, a newcomer to Canada, inquired of the skipper as to what our elevation might be "......since we were so far north." We were standing on the aft deck of this 100 foot long vessel. and the skipper glanced around slowly and very seriously replied "About 6 feet I should think." *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
