A near perfect day on the calm waters of  Okanagan Lake in Peachland, BC made for a great day of racing at the 2nd Annual Salmon Run.  Orange Otters, along with Bliss Bakery, hosted the 2nd annual event and a dozen SUP’ers took to the 9-mile course that crossed from Peachland to Rattlesnake Island, West to Antler Beach and back to Bliss Bakery. 

A tasty Salmon Bake following the race was a fitting end to a great day of SUP racing.  Thanks to everyone who made the trip out. Pics courtesy of  Shaun Bos Photography (http://shaunbos.com)
