TILTON TREK February 17th, 2024
Check with the trip leaders before coming down. Trip Leaders WRRR Board
Brrrr! It’s cold and rainy and just right for a trip on the Tilton! The Tilton is a beautiful class III-IV canyon just west of Mt. Rainier. The first few miles are an easy warmup for the narrow and exciting gorge section. The rapids are challenging and fast – you have to stay on your toes on this run. There is a paddle out on the lake at the end, but it’s not too long and you’ll have plenty of time to talk about the awesome run you just had (and about whatever ridiculous thing happened to the club president this time…).
Meet at the takeout Saturday morning at 9:30 a.m. or camp out Friday night. If flows are high, or if there are people who just want an easier float, the Upper Tilton is a class II+-III run.
NOTE: Flows are expected to be high and there are reports of wood in critical places. Please check in with the group before going to the put-in.
We will post any updates on this page as they come up. Please check here a couple days prior to the event.
