Anyone up for a run down the lower green river gorge this weekend.
Either Saturday or Sunday works and I am flexible as to when we meet, either early (say 10AM at takeout, or even earlier) or later in the day (say 2PM at the takeout)
Let me know either on this thread or via PM

 River Alerts ( Add Alert ) |
 There is a "new" sieve in the entrance ledge. Some wood and rock blew out of a sieve on river right directly above the ledge before the river turns 90 degrees right. Don''t catch that little eddy anymore. - Posted by: Jed Hawkes on 4/7/2012 12:05:00 AM -

Caution: Paddle stuck in Door # 3, the river right chute at the Nozzle.
The paddle is stuck in the right-hand "door" of the three "doors" through the rapid. . The paddle became lodged in the river during the fatal drowning of rafter and Everett Councilman Drew Nielsen on May 12, 2012 (News Report). Because of the way that the paddle is stuck, the KC sheriff was not able to remove the paddle when they removed the raft. The paddle is sticking upstream and could be difficult to see at some water levels. Boaters are advised to use the "center door" until the paddle is naturally dislodged or flows become low enough that it can safely be removed.
