Great video's and photos! It looks like it was a blast.

ahhh...

Catapalooza 2010...

I'm sure it will be one of the more talked about things around the camp fire in all future Catapaloozas.

Naughty seas and winds didn't allow for much fishing. We hit it hard for little opportunity that we got on our paddle back to the Two Harbors.

I had a great time camping, hiking and relaxing with a great gang.

Can't wait till C2011.

Here's a little clip from our paddle down to the Little Harbor the first day...

Wow.. some terrible conditions. Was there a gale warning in effect that weekend?

Sorry I have no photos to post but just good memories of this trip.
Thanks Andy and OEX for setting it up-lot's of work and time.
Had a great time in spite of the conditions and hope to make it 2011 if my arms recover

Great group of guys to fish with and all were willing to help each other in any way possible. Not bad hanging out in the campsite either.

Yep, on Sat. and Sun. I am pretty sure. Adi's video is from the paddle down on Fri. (the calmest of the first 3 days).
