What's New with Anew

Hot Summers Night

The heat of summer has arrived in Washington and to be honest it's been a long time coming.   Now is the time to enjoy a relaxing evening paddle after work or take a day or two of vacation and savor a long weekend in the beautiful northwest.   Don't hesitate, before you know it the days will shorten and the crispness of fall will creep in.   Happy 4 th !   Cheers John

Notes from the Field

Snohomish Delta Kayaking

Summer has finally arrived here in the Northwest with a vengeance with temperatures soaring into record-breaking highs. Thankfully we were able to spend most of the weekend on the water by participating in ANEW Outdoors guide-training program. Those of us that make up the core of ANEW are veteran guides but we still enjoy the camaraderie of getting on the water together, sharing past stories, adventures and sometimes misadventures.

John wanted to also use this trip to explore new territories for possible future venues, so the plan called for traveling to Everett and meeting at Langus Riverfront Park. From there we planned to explore the waterways surrounding Spencer Island.

Experience Says

Anew's Top 5 Ways to Beat the Heat

 

    1. Jumping off a dock into the refreshingly cold water of Ross Lake.
    2. Fishing for blue ribbon trout under blue bird skies on the Yakima River.
    3. Sipping wine on the shores of Matia Island as the sun sets over the San Juan Islands.
    4. Dunking in an alpine lake, then drying off in a field of wildflowers.
    5. Scoping out tide pools full of colorful starfish and swaying sea anemones during an Olympic Coast backpacking trip.
