 Topic: Wenatchee Weekend Posted: 03 May 2006 at 10:59am |
Hey all,
I'll be on the east side boating Friday through Sunday. Give me a
call if you are over there and want to boat. Want to hook up with
other boaters for whatever.

I will be in leavenworth on Friday, Sat, and Sunday.
We are planning to Run these
Icicle (Upper, Richochet, and Lower)
Tumwater (- Exit, and -POW) if we man up
Wenatchee (Grannies if it is in)
The camping is fine and we are going to scope out some spots for the party which will be at the end of this month.
I can check the site from where we camp, so if you want to meet up or something just post a message and I will see it.
As far as doing the wenatchee at 1am on friday like Jon proposes ...
you can count me out. Sorry I just can't commit to runs that early.
Maybe I'm just a big wuss.

I am up for the Wenatchee run...If I head over, it will be Friday mid-day or afternoon, and I am certainly open to carpooling.

Being as this is the first session at the Wenatchee for the season, 15 hours
seemed appropriate. Yes, that is incredible stamina. I'm an all nighter,
baby. James, I'm down for all that stuff... I need to procure a creek boat
though. I left mine down at the White Salmon for the season already. We'll
see if I can get something.

I'm headed over now. I'll be camped @ across icicle creek at the "climbers camp" near bridge creek tonight thru sat. That is if levels don't crank up several notches b/w now and then.
Give me a call on your way over or I'll see ya there.

With respect to rivers, I was planning to do the lower Wenatchee (not Tumwater). I might be up for other things, but not the class V insanity that certain folks in this posting love, what with their facination of flirting with death...
I might go up Saturday morning or Friday night. In either case, I know I will have someone to boat with on Sunday, so that seems to be set.

I am camping at a free little spot that is over the river and through the woods...
I am not kidding either... Go to Bridge Creek Camp Ground. Cross the
river and head up the hill. Take your first Left... but be careful not
to miss it.... shes concealed ....
I will be boating a wide variety of stuff while I am out there.

I will definitely be over there this weekend. I am ready for the Wenatchee or for Peshastin/Ingalls creeks. Anyone want to meet at Peshastin put-in for Wenatchee at 10am on Saturday? Maybe Peshastin creek put-in on Friday at 6?

Yes yes see you guys there too. I am out around the same time as you all tomorrow.
We should all look for each other maybe kick it together for a bit... ??? Or better yet we can all boat the lower icicle together.

I could be down for that, it'd give me a chance to demo a new creek boat, since I don't have mine out here yet.

Hey Leif
A bunch of people are doing below Tumwater canyon you are more than welcome to hop on board. I think we are also thinking of doing the Chiwawa if your interested and some other rivers in the area. Heading over around noon.
Peace
