Taking an afternoon trip across Hoover Reservoir wasn’t a fool’s chore for this pair of young kayakers who braved chill winds and choppy waters for their first outdoor adventure of the spring.

Despite temperatures barely above freezing and a brisk wind from the west, the pair completed one crossing with a round-about return near the bridge where they encountered headwinds that buffeted their single person kayaks just enough to make the return difficult.

Despite the hazards and cold breezes they discussed their next trip to the lake although both hoped it would be a little warmer next time.

And, the day wouldn’t be complete without an iPhone Hiopstamatic Tintype of the duo.
