Product Details
Never Boat Alone, A Guide to Solo Boating the Colorado River through GrandCanyon
by Bruce Cline
GCPBA members receive a 25% discount. At checkout, use the discount code: Lava
This book is primarily for boaters interested in soloing the Grand Canyon, but its principles apply to all solo whitewater boating. Only a small fraction of Grand Canyon boaters ever contemplate or actually attempt a solo trip and, unfortunately, there is no river guide specifically about this endeavor. The Colorado River through Grand Canyon sports world class water, incredible scenery, wonderful (or frightening) isolation, and unique challenges for the solo boater. This guide will be designed to assist boaters in preparing for this incredible undertaking.Topics covered include
Self-Rescue
Rescue Gear and Knowledge
Redundancy of gear and supplies
Solo Boating Tactics
General Preparedness
Camping, Cooking, and Packing
Each of these topics, and others, address issues specific to soloing. True to form, the text will include some amount of irreverent humor. Again, a river guide such as this does not currently exist, and based on conversations I’ve had with many boaters it will fill an important need.
