I am interested in a sky run but at 10K+ I don't know if it qualifies as class III or not (I know boulder drop wouldn't). Any interest?

I'm guessing the Sky is probably more than I'm looking for this weekend.

Just got a new boat. I'd like to shake the bugs out of it on some easy water.

Are you talking about doing the Boulder Drop run or Big Eddy?

What's it like at these levels?

Any interest in the Upper Green or Cedar or ???

I'll boat anything. I don't know what anything is like at these levels I am not really "from around here".

I would be up for the Upper Green tomorrow. Dont fell like driving anywhere long distance. Already drove over 1000 miles this week in the rain and traffic and I am going to lose it if I drive any more!

We did the Green on Thursday, it was lots of fun at these levels.

How 'bout the South Fork of the Snoqualmie from Twin Falls State Park to 436th Bridge? http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/detail/id/2224/

I've never done it, but my lovely assistant insists it's fun. We'll see.

I'd like to get a relatively early start. Maybe leave North Seattle around 9:30ish?

Give me a shout at 206 _ 792 _ 9801

Sorry Dave, didn't see your post.

We did the Upper Green today and there were quite a few good catch on the fly surf spots.

Big tree on that class IIIish ledge made things interesting. We kinda snuck it way right, then back left.

We'd do the Green again, but would probably rather do the Sno... it's closer for us.

Shall we draw straws?

The South Fork of the Snow is pretty easy, but if the water is super high it is fun. The
mm would be better. Or the Green.

The MM looks like more excitement than I can stand for tomorrow.

Upper Green? http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/detail/id/3114/

Meet at the takeout at 11?

Roger that Dave.

I'm still open to suggestions.

Interested folks can call me after 6:30am. We'll probably plan on leaving the house by 10... destination yet to be determined.

I don't know where Paradise is. Is that the takeout for the Gorge?
