Boise, Idaho’s Dan Simenc is a man of many talents. He’s a photographer, videographer, writer and climber, not to mention being an elite Class V whitewater kayaker. After graduating from college in the spring of 2009, Dan loaded up a pile of NRS gear, kayaks and cameras, along with a brand new MacBook Pro, and hit the road. He’s been documenting his adventures and misadventures ever since. If you’ve ever yearned for the free-flowing lifestyle of a vagabond paddler, or admired those brash enough to actually live it, then you’re going to love Kayak Diaries.
