If predictions are correct, you may be surprisingly hard up to find IV/V runs at reasonable flows. Robe will be too high (unless you are Sam), Ernies will be too high (for pretty much everyone), Clearwater in the Nooksack drainage will probably be too high, although could be in, look for around 2k on the middle fork nook gauge (I think), all the other nooksack runs will be too high, etc. Top Tye would probably be the most likely to be in at a reasonable flow, but it all depends on this rain.Looks like tumwater may be in at a good flow as well. As for camping, it obviously depends on where you will be boating. If its the top tye, maybe some of the sky valley locals can chime in on good free spots in that area. For leavenworth, you may find it hard to camp this time of year because of the snow.....maybe you could find something at Chiwaukum creek? There is also a house full of bros (Tom Potter, Chris Lubenow, etc) who probably wouldnt be opposed to folks sleeping somewhere in their house or on their property. They lurk these forums as well.Not a whole lot of help here, but I'd keep an eye on levels to see if its even worth making the trip, high possibility of getting skunked w/all the water predicted. The fall back in these parts is the Green since its usually at a really fun level when everything else is too high. Of course, if you have the tolerance for water that people like Sam, then this weekend may work out differently for you. I'm out for saturday boating, maybe around sunday...not certain yet.

If things get too big, you could always hit the Sky if it's a reasonable level for you. There is camping just down the road in Index on the river. It's chilly up there, but not as cold as Leavenworth and will likely be rainy.

That sounds like it'd be sweet. Maybe if water levels are this uncertain we'll stay in Whistler instead of heading south. We'd like to take a trip but maybe the next long weekend is a better choice.

In any case ya'll seem like a solid paddling group. Thanks for the advice and I look forward to getting out w you soon.
