  • Paddlers encounter dangerous weather conditions at the 2023 Missouri River 340 (MR340), the longest non-stop river race event. Thunderstorms cause a rise of more than 10 feet, pushing trees and debris into the river along 20+ mph winds and hail, along with paddling in pitch-black night conditions. Follow Michael and Lori as they paddle their canoe through unpredictable river and weather conditions in this paddling documentary video.

    Thank you to the event for keeping everyone safe.

    You're video was awesome!! It covered everything from the fun to the bad. I have a good friend who was in the race. I was watching and tracking everything. I live near the river, and I knew the dangers of that storm and what they meant. See you all this summer! I'll be watching.

    OK so the race was stopped but who who was in the lead? How many boats were in front of you?

    You did a great job of describing the highs and lows of this year's race. Always an adventure.

    Excellent story Michael. Hard to capture the intensity of Mother Nature in a 2D video, but you did it well. I probably shouldn’t be watching this recap right before I sign up for the 2024 race!

    • @MichaelCarson1
      @MichaelCarson1  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for watching! Yes, it's difficult to capture on video. Haha, you'll be just fine. Weather and water levels are looking good this year.

    One of the greatest adventures a person can do. The misery in Missouri will test you on every level.

    What a great video Michael. I was there and will be keeping this video as a memory of the 2023 saga in the MO340. Well done. I even spotted my boat at Kansas City and Glasgow at the ramp in this video.

    Great video Michael. We met briefly at my first 100 during mogollan in 2019 and it's been really interesting seeing how your endurance sport of choice has evolved over the years. Got me thinking about getting a canoe/kayak!

    • @MichaelCarson1
      @MichaelCarson1  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! Life is a journey. Let me know if you need any help/advice on that canoe/kayak ;)
