We live right across the street from the South Fork of the Teton River. It has been frozen for the entire time that we have lived here up until about two weeks ago. We decided that we really needed to go kayaking even though Rexburg is still in the dead of winter. Here is what became of it.

Ten foot snow drifts.

When we finally were at the end, Shane was drenched from head to toe, and I was drenched from my knees up. I bet another 30 minutes of being on the river would have turned us into icicles. Kyle on the other hand hardly got even a drop of water on him.

My helmet and sunglasses were covered in ice.

It was such a great adventure. It was both mine and Shanes first time. There was a part in the river where it turned into a huge opening and it was really windy at that time. That is where we got the wettest. Shane and mines kayak was meant to have wet suits with it and sat real low. Our skirts had holes in them and did not protect us as well as we would have liked. But it was all worth it!
