Oskar,
The snow kayaking looked like fun until they plopped into that freezing cold water.
When I was at LSU my friends and I thought it would be fun to water ski down one the streets flooded by hurricane rainfall. We figured if we could get some skis, some ski rope, a car with someone crazy enough to drive, then it should have worked. Unfortunately, we had none of the aforementioned.
The ultimate government job in Louisiana is to be the snow plow inspector in Cameron parish which is right on the Gulf. Somewhere in time I feel sure there was such a position but the guy probably quit because the work was too hard.
