We first wrote about Logan Grayling in The Thought Kitchen back in April and followed up by chronicling his exploratory paddling trip in Vietnam in the Collective section of our website. A few weeks ago Logan made the second descent of Johnston’s Falls in Alberta’s Banff National Park. It clocks in at roughly 98 feet. I talked with Logan the day after his descent and he told me he had been eyeing the drop for two years prior to taking the plunge. The only previous descent was made in 1999, by the legendary Tao Berman, establishing the unofficial record for the longest vertical descent in a kayak. For a fuller story check out Paddling Life. You can also catch a glimpse of Logan and his “Young Gun” paddling partners in the August issue of Outside Magazine.
