White Water Kayaking Bulls Bridge On The Housatonic River

The month of June finished with nearly eleven inches of rain making it the second wettest June in history. Many out door plans had to be changed thanks to this soggy weather. But on the Housatonic River this record rainfall has produced epic conditions for a group of White water kayakers. Photojournalist Freddie Matthis recently caught up with the paddlers as they caught their breath in between runs.
