I have things to do tomorrow, but have time to sneak in an a.m. run.  Was thinking about being at the Tanner take out at 8am (ouch!)  I can do earlier than 8 if someone has similar time constraints.  But you bring the coffee if you are thinking true dawn patrol
 
Totally cool if you are new to the run and want to come - happy to show lines, give crappy pointers that take years of formal education to correct, etc.  If the level stays at 1800, give or take, its a pretty nice ride for a first time.
 
If the levels shoot up past, say 2500, I might bail - been 6 months out of the boat and was hoping for more chill.
 
Post up here if you are coming - if no one chimes in, I might have to go do something lame... like skiing....in neon.

How'd you feel about a newb in a packraft? I have been up to II+ without any major issues, and would like to try something harder ... portaging is easy if need be.

Totally cool - be fun to see a packraft in action. See you at 8 at Tanner take out.   My cell is 206.660.8469.

Good to know!   I favor the early starts, but find it harder sometimes to rally people for the early trips.

I'll post up earlier next time.

I also missed this post but I also prefer early starts as I have young kids and it allows me to spend part of the day with them. 

Class IV boater with solid experience.  Let me know if going out early again.
