Matt Hudgens

Slalom, rodeo, surf kayaking, river running…Matt is not picky; if it can be done in a boat, he will do it! Any waterway with enough water to float a kayak is worth running. His ardor (or is it craze?) lies deep. At age 33, Matt has paddled many a creek, river and ocean wave. Among his favorites are the Wentachee River in Washington because it's got the best play in the West and Cherry Creek in California because it is the Classic of the classics. Upper Cispus Creek in Washington and Steamers Lane in Santa Cruz rank high for him as well. But, when it comes to the most exotic place he has gotten wet, British Columbia tops his list. When not on the water, he is usually near it photographing other paddlers on it or writing about it. Check out the March 2002 issue of Canoe and Kayak Magazine for his article on surf kayaking.
