River Rafting (Chilliwack 29 and 30 July 2000)


Pictures of Seagate Software's river rafting event in Chilliwack, British Columbia (Canada). This event was organized by Scott Cameron of the QA department. We drove to Chilliwack on Saturday afternoon to set up the camping gear for an overnight stay at the campground. On Sunday we either rafted the "Classic" or the "Canyon". The weather was just incredible (29 degrees on Sunday).
