This is the Pilchuch Creek on Sunday discussion thread. Please post any questions below.

Remember the actual Trip Details are located on the Pilchuch Creek on Sunday | Trip Page

It looks like we will have water. The DOE gauge is at 725 CFS and rising with more rain in the forecast. I am planning on meeting at the take out bridge at 11:00 AM for the lower run, and maybe hitting both the upper and lower runs.

Weide: You can meet us at the put-in. PM me your number and I'll let you know if we are on for the upper part of the run or not tomarrow morning.

Who's in?

Pilchuck sounds like a great idea! I've ran it once, but don't remember levels/lines.

I'll see you at the take out. Gimme a shout if anything changes 206 708 forty-four fifty-eight.

Did anyone run the upper section this weekend ? Just curious on the wood situation.

Thanks,

We ran the Upper and Lower on Saturday at around 1,000-1,100 and it was a pretty good med-low level. The wood definitely made you keep a heads-up most of the time, but no portages were necessary. At higher water, there would definitely be a few portages and a more tense situation overall. Jon Almquist can probably comment a bit more of the specifics.
