The 52and Running of the Red Mo downriver whitewater race
Lens: AF Tamron 70-300mm tele-macro Camera: K-70 Photo Location: Moshannon Creek

The Red Mo(Red Moshannon) downriver race is the longest running river race in Pennsylvania. On the last Saturday in March, over 200 boats compete on the Class II+, 7.5 mile stretch of the creek that runs from Grass Flats to the Rt. 53 Bridge in a remote section of the Mountains of Central Pennsylvania. Canoes, Kayaks, SUP's, Inflatables etc each have a different class, which is divided into various sub-classes etc. I position myself at the last Rapids, Known as Twin Rocks, before the finish line. I love running this water, but I'm not much on crowds, so I act as the unofficial photographer for the race. This year I took 890 photos and edited that down to 489 that I posted on the Race website. It's a great race, and a lot of fun for everyone. This one was blessed by 66(F) temps and reasonably high water. Used my K70 and PZ-1P; these are from the K-70.

Certainly looks like an exciting time was had by all.
