Geraint Anderson: January 2014
http://geraintanderson.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 January 2014. With all the rain that has plagued the UK in last few months, at least one group of people are happy. With epic levels on the Thames most weirs were washed out but I managed a rare surf on Mapledurham weir. It did involve paddling across a field to get to the river but once I was there it was brilliant. I don't usually make playboating videos, I find them repetative, but I have just got a new laptop and was keen to try out the new video editing software. View my complete profile.

Wednesday, 12 March 2014. High Water on the Mawddach, North Wales. With another wet weekend forecast I drove up to North Wales. Despite the torrential rain on the drive up levels were pretty low on Saturday. We got a few runs of the Tryweryn in and crossed our fingers for better levels on Sunday.

Geraint Anderson: Madagascar: Planes, Trains and Automobiles
http://geraintanderson.blogspot.com/2013/08/madagascar-planes-trains-and-automobiles.html
Thursday, 1 August 2013. Madagascar: Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Photo courtesy of Dan Crowley. I’m back from one of the most epic adventures of my life and over the next few blog posts I’ll tell you all about it. The excitement started as soon as I got on the plane. Due to some odd rules the plane and all its contents (including us) had to undergo insecticide treatment. Decontamination complete we could enjoy the luxuries of Air France; red wine, good food and films. They flew out a few days early a...

We drove back to the house in Antananarivo to meet Dory, the last member of our team, who had flown out later than everyone else. I also had to swap my kayak for one that still floats. We were told that there was another 2 Dagger Nomads with no holes or welds in but they were located in Ranomafana. Eventually a man turned up peeri...

Geraint Anderson: August 2013
http://geraintanderson.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 12 August 2013. A new day on the Faravory. Rhod, thrilled while protecting an undercut in the gorge. Day 2 on the Faravory was quite different to day 1, with steeper and narrower rapids. At one point we reached a deep gorge which was difficult to inspect. We spent some time picking our way between the boulders beneath the towering rock walls. This river had some powerful holes and this whole section reminded me of the Guardian Angel gorge in the French Alps, complete with the undercuts. Either sn...

Geraint Anderson: Into the Unknown - First Descent of the Sandrananta

Thursday, 24 October 2013. Into the Unknown - First Descent of the Sandrananta. The Team, preparing for the first descent of the Sandrananta. As we had come to expect, getting off the water we were once again immersed in faff. Our guide who met us at the get out with the bus informed us that we were late and the plan would have to change. With only a week until our flights we could only do a rafted section of relatively easy white water. Packing our boats for the next adventure. With the vehicle loaded u...
