Searching for Open Water

Oh that time of year. Ya know when you can not find open water... Everything is freezing over quickly this year in ol Minnesota. Went to my go to spot last year, which I paddled into late January. Completely froze over. Well crap..

So I went to Boom Landing on Saint Croix River. Figured with that big of a river, moving water, and rapids in some sections it would for sure still have some open water. Well it did... Buuuut not much. Just a super small section. Didn't stop Nala and I from going out and getting an hour in of paddling. I was also playing around with this AER GoPro Dart. It's a big dart thing you throw up into the air and get drone like shots on the way down. Pretty sweet but that sucker falls quick out of the air. Need to play around with it more.

Afterwards, I headed to one of my favorite local parks, Willow River State Park, WI. Played around the waterfalls with the last hour of daylight. Really digging the blues.
