Class II Trip March 8
Yo!
Time to get on the mother flipping river.
Chris Saunders and Matt York will be leading a Class II trip on the Snoqualmie River Saturday March 8. It's the section of the river called Powerhouse - the put-in is right at the base of the ever-gorgeous Snoqualmie Falls. For those who don't know the rating system, Class II is the next step above ripples - perfect for people who have no river experience. There are still a few small play features, so more experienced paddlers can have some fun as well.
Here's some splendid info on this section courtesy of American Whitewater.
The current plan is to gather at the WAC at 9:00 am on Saturday March 8th. Note this is subject to change, depending on water levels, spontaneous fire-breathing dragon attacks, etc. We'll spend probably an hour fitting everyone into their gear, head out to the river which is about a 45 minute drive, romanticize in the glory of Snoqualmie falls, and hit the rapids. We'll spend time in the first rapid going over basic river skills until people are feeling solid, and then head down river. The run is a wee little run (relatively), so we can either take it slow and play around on the rapids, or we can do multiple runs.
If you are a lake member and you'd like to go on the trip you will need to upgrade your membership to lake/sea. You can do that by filling out this form and taking it to the HUB Ticket Office. The $30 charge pays only for your American Canoe Association membership, which is our insurance coverage.
So if you're interested, RSVP to me - myork@u. with this info:
* Paddling experience, if any (most people for this trip probably won't have any)
* Can you roll?
* A secret talent of yours
* Car availability
-Rack?
-Number of seats
* Cell number
* Your opinion on Britney Spears
Note: All asterisks points are required.
If there are any changes, I will announce them to the whitewater email list (ukc-ww). If you are not on the list or are unsure if you are, just add yourself by clicking here and filling out the info.
Duh... yea. I uber encourage going to the pool session this Sunday. I (Matt) will be there helping people with their rolls and going over basic river techniques.
Word. I'm stoked. You should be too. Soon you will become a star of the Paddle Porn.
