Aug 31 Social Instagram Past the holesiphon, now time to square up for a little hydraulic. The rest of us had no issue walking this one on the Indus. Pakistan, November 12, 2008.
Aug 30 Social Instagram Chris and Rafa get a nice tandem hole ride on, between the big holes in the rapid °. Pakistan, November 12 2008.
Aug 30 Social Instagram Reposted from @darinmcquoid Use #kayakingislove to be featured! Double tap and tag your kayak loving friends! Dont forget to hit follow! #kayaks #kayaking #watersports #yakaddicts
Aug 29 Social Instagram The concern is that we can see a shallow rock in the massive braking wave. Chris tries to get left but gets crashed on just above it. Pakistan, November 12th, 2008.
Aug 29 Social Instagram Rashid and Mustafa, our drivers, look on as the team scouts for the third time in day two of the Indus. Pakistan, November 12, 2008.
Aug 29 Social Instagram That unfortunate moment when the crashing wave closes out on you. Second day on the Indus is exciting.
Aug 29 Social Instagram Expedition kayaking is only half about the kayaking. A large part of it is going somewhere new, and seeing things you chance experienced before, many of them putting you out of your comfort zone. Pakistan, November 12, 2008.
Aug 29 Social Instagram The rock formations are just incredible. Sick last night, I'm now separated from the team by a large gorge. That's ok as it still don't feel too hot. As it ends up, roadside days are the best for photography here. I'd love to go back just to shoot some day, in that dream world with a d5 and set of 300-600mm primes.
Aug 27 Social Instagram Last night Roland and I stayed in a small town above the rest of the team. I pooped myself in the night. Twice. There was no running water but I found an irrigation ditch nearby. Inspirational quote about loving travel and adventure? Good morning November 11th, 2008.
Aug 26 Social Instagram To think that we are here at low water. The white line is the seasonal average. Two kayakers far on the left as we make our first portage as a team. Indus, Pakistan. November 10th, 2008.
Aug 26 Social Instagram How well did the Hero perform on ~20,000cfs of big water? Superb roll practice. Indus River, Pakistan. November 10th, 2008.
Aug 26 Social Instagram Mr Phil Boyer at the end of the same rapid. Yup, stay left. Indus River in Pakistan, November 10th 2008.
Aug 25 Social Instagram You just have to look close, really close, to see Phil Boyer entering this rapid on the right side of the photo. Rafa scouted this one then told us to just stay left...Pakistan, November 10th, 2008.
Aug 25 Social Canoe & Kayak Magazine FB Expedition paddler Darin McQuoid is back with another addition to his sleeping kit review series.
Aug 25 Social Instagram Know we know what it feels like to be a fly floating in a huge bowl of chai tea as its being served. Pakistan, November 10th 2008.
Aug 25 Social Instagram Phil Boyer enters the second scout of the day. This one was big, this is about 1/10th of the rapid. He got some wicked freestyle on in an eddy at the bottom. At this point I think we're all wondering what we got ourselves into. Indus River, Pakistan, November 10th 2008.
Aug 25 Social Instagram Pakistan; November 10th, 2008. I've never paddled big water before, nor taken photos of it. It's going to be a learning process. First scout of the day, @rafaortizkayak proves. @redbull
Aug 23 Social Canoe & Kayak Magazine FB Photo of the Day: Manu Koehler in Jordalselvi, Norway. Credit: Darin Mcquoid
Aug 23 Social Instagram Once you have kayaks on the roof it's like being a traveling circus. On top of being white and foreign. No luck going up the Indus, the endless Kashmir war is too real to allow us far enough up to find rapids. Pakistan, November 8, 2008.
Aug 22 News Canoe Kayak Photo of the Day | Darin McQuoid
Aug 22 Social Instagram We're stopped at this military checkpoint for several hours and many cups of chai tea as they try to decide if we need more paperwork to kayak upstream of here on the Braldu River. Half the time is now spending a good part of the visit throwing up or with explosive diarrhea, most with both. Traveling is so fun °. Pakistan, November 7, 2008.
Aug 22 Social Instagram Driving up towards K2 we stop in a small village and the camera is turned on us. Funny how a quick stop to ask for directions can turn into an hour visit. Pakistan, November 7, 2008.
Aug 20 Social Instagram No blending in now. Instead of putting on the Indus we decide to head closer to K2 and run the Braldu River. To do this we need to rent a 4x4. Good thing diesel Land Rover trucks abound in Pakistan. Just a few kilometers outside of the city @rafaortizkayak and @ckorbulic adjust the load. @immersionresearch
Aug 19 Social Instagram Main Street in Skardu. Note the Oakley sticker in the window of the land cruiser in the bottom left. I have a feeling this guy is currently trying to sell me sunglasses for $24.99 on Facebook. Pakistan, November 7, 2008.
Aug 19 Social Instagram Food buying mission in Skardu. @ckorbulic checks out the night life. Can't we just go kayaking? Pakistan November 6 2008.
Aug 18 Social Instagram It looks like a class II riffle. Little did I know, big water paddling is a whole different game. I though California had things on a big scale...little did I know. Indus River while in route to Skardu, Pakistan. November 6 2008.
Aug 18 Social Instagram The Bedford is one the most iconic sights of Pakistan. Here one passes in front of Nanga Parbat on the Karakoram Highway as we leave one major tributary behind, the Gilgit, and head up the Rondu Gorge to Skardu. Pakistan, November 6, 2008.
Aug 18 Social Instagram As we get close to Gilgit we start seeing families camped along the river. We find out that most are camped for temporary work in the semi precious gem mines of the area.
Aug 17 Social Instagram Perspective is everything. This isn't a foot bridge, full size trucks drive over it. Crossing the Indus it spans about 500m. Pakistan, November 5, 2008.
Aug 17 Social Instagram The ability of humans to survive is inspiring. Terraced fields above the Indus River in the high desert foothills of the Karakoram, Pakistan. November 5, 2008.
Aug 17 Social Instagram This is about as low as the Indus gets. I've never paddled big water before, and this is about ~40,000cfs (~900cms). Thankfully after the Gilgit confluence it should be a bit less. Pakistan, November 5, 2008
Aug 17 Social Instagram We see the Indus for the first time several hours outside of Islamabad. We also see a different way of life, in some ways like stepping back in time. Pakistan, November 5, 2008.
Aug 16 Social Instagram The most dangerous moment of our time in Pakistan? Using a gas engine sitting on top of a diesel pump it was powering to fill a truck hauling propane. What could go wrong? November 5, 2008.
Aug 16 Social Instagram Two days of driving ahead of us on the road to Skardu, we leave Islamabad and are excited to make it out into the country, where a car like this would be priceless in the USA, is just a work truck. Day one in country.
Aug 15 Social Instagram November 4th, 2008. Obama is elected which eases tensions as we land in Islamabad. Kayaks stay in their bags to keep us incognito. Boats secured to the roof of our rental van, we leave the city at dawn.
Aug 15 Social Instagram September 24th, 2008. Purchased non refundable tickets to Islamabad, Pakistan. Departure November 4th. Weight limit 23kg. How to fit kayaks and expedition gear for three weeks?
Aug 14 Social Instagram dream to go back to keep work hard! °@darinmcquoid #毎日楽しい! でも #体はキツイ(笑) #夜の事務仕事が孤独 次の旅夢見てがんばる° #カリフォルニア #余韻に浸る #カヤック #滝 #2016年4月 #kayak #waterfalls #whitewater #california

This is our last post of this angle for a while, though. Promise.
