The Cali Burn Fest
"Yeah for me, er, him." Alex Wolfgram hoping his buddy catches the throwrope.

I definitely couldn’t get caught up in my placing. I finished somewhere between seven and 11. The intern would work me later in a keg stand contest too, lasting longer in the vertical position and sucking more beer than I could. Humbling? Yes, but the kid deserved a moral boost after slaving away in our offices the past month. My ego was a good sacrifice.
The party is hosted at a backwoods cabin, where everyone camps and makes rowdy after the day. Gamache organized the event in benefit of the Sun Catchers Project, a non-profit run by Rita Riewerts that builds solar ovens for impoverished villages in developing countries.
Passion like this is everywhere. There’s Huckinhuge.com’s Cody Howard, who has stuck so much gnar lately—including the Stikine—that his new movie, The Risen Sun, is one of the most anticipated releases this year. Unfortunately, he’s being shipped back to Iraq on Wednesday, having been recalled into military service. “I don’t know if I’ll get the movie out,” he says. “It’s tough because we were on such a great roll.”
There’s talk of a Colombia expedition from Tyler Bradt; Sturges is wondering if there’s any place left for the whitewater filmmaker; and Center won’t get out of my ear about how he wants more whitewater coverage in Canoe and Kayak.
We drag out of camp early Sunday morning, Gonski and I bombing Burnt Ranch one more glorious time as Zaleski grabs breakfast. Eleven and a half hard road hours later we’re back in San Clemente. The intern and the art director are passed out. I’m trying to figure out where my wallet is and if I stuffed all my boating gear in during the mayhem. Yes, it has been a good trip.
