Our team is Darin, Natalie, Opie and Rocky Kellum. Kayaking, snowboarding, camping and traveling present us with plenty of challenges, but with Darin's good looks, Natalie's good luck, Rocky's brawn and Opie's brains we manage to have a good time.

Kebler Pass is open and we went to Crested Butte this weekend for some couples' creekin' with Kat and David. Crested Butte is an exceptionally beautiful place and with Kebler Pass open it is only about 80 miles from our house to the OBJ campsite. Having the Jeep is perfect for the river crossings and 4X4 roads that most people have to hike to huck.

We got to CB and set up camp Friday afternoon and warmed up with a Daisy run. It was the first time Darin and I had ever done this creek. The creek is short and sweet, slide middle three times, slide right, boogie, huge boof off falls, dodge some wood and end with a slide middle. Darin and I both hucked Big Wood Falls (15') twice that night, but we didn't run Rip Your Head Off. Daisy was so fun we went back the next day after our OBJ run and fired it up again.

OBJ was at a fun level, perfectly padded and not too pushy. We ran it twice, once on Saturday and again on Sunday. Darin and I had done it once before, but now we feel like we know it. Overall it was a great weekend for Team Kellum, full of camping, jeepin', dogs and waterfalls.
