    Only accessible by hiking through beautiful 'Avalanche Pass', the Opalescent Gorge holds one of the steepest runnable sections of whitewater in the state including 65 foot high 'Hanging Spear' Falls. Hanging Spear - The Headwaters of the Hudson River is an exciting adventure taken by professional Kayaker Steve Fisher. A true adrenaline seeker that has taken on some of the wildest rapids in the world, Fisher brings his non-stop paddling skills to the backyard of one of the most famous cities in the world and shows those city-dwellers the journey that awaits just upstream.

    2:03 - "His Permanently Positive attitude, incredible Paddling skills, make Pat the Perfect Partner on this Project!" Oh, man! I couldn't agree more, especially with all those Ps!

    I love this video... it delves into the planning, scouting and expedition aspects of kayaking that most of the general public is completely oblivious to. Not to mention, some great footage of running awesome whitewater (the reward for all that hard work)

    I don't quite understand how Fisher is a sponsored Red Bull kayaker and Kelly isn't. From what I've seen here, he's the superior paddler yet he's the one slaving away at the 9-to-5.

    • @kevinadams5641

      Fisher is getting older. He was considered one of the best paddlers in the world during his prime

    I don't understand why they did not make this video available in South Africa. PS Red Bull, blocking videos from countries only adds one more click to watch it.

      Moon Sloth I agree it really disgusts me how many people are joking about Ebola, make a joke about september 11th or ww2 or rwanada and its hugely frowned upon...lately ebola seems to be the big joke. it is seriously demented.
