White Salmon Weekend July 21st

Come Join us for the WRRR White Salmon Weekend.  Camping Friday July 20th and Saturday July 21st. 

The White Salmon trip is coming up in July. Join us on this annual WRRR sponsored trip on a class 3-3+ run with one optional portage around Husam Falls. Some folks choose to run the eight to ten foot drop — some don’t even flip.  We meet at the takeout (Northwestern Lake) at noon on Saturday for the shuttle. There is a sign on State Route 141 about five miles from the town of White Salmon. We will put in at BZ Corner. 

The White Salmon got hit hard by the storms this year and may have issues with wood. Tune in to the group site & Facebook for a wood report.  Camping is free for WRRR members at Hollenbeck Park near Trout Lake, WA. This will be the 2nd year at Hollenbeck Park.  The camp site has a large grassy area with spectacular views of Mt. Adams. Address: 33 Mt Adams Rd. (off Hwy 141 to Mt. Adams)

PLEASE NOTE:  When we have a WRRR event where WRRR pays for camping, we charge $10 per person for non-member camping. It’s often a hard thing to collect from people because club members don’t always prepare their guests for this, and the board member doing the collecting ends up being the baddie. Please make sure that your guests know that there is a fee.  You will need to make your own arrangements for food, drink and camping/cooking gear.

New Boater Trip – April 25th

Chris Herman and Paula Tarp have organized a "Beginner Boater" trip next Wed. 4/25 for the lower S. Fork of the
Stillaguamish (Stilly) from Jordan Rd. bridge (Chapel Bridge #87) to
River Meadows Park. It is about 8 miles and should take about 3 hours on
the water. It is a great training run with no scary wood (that I've ever
seen) and easy put in and take out.

We'll meet at 10:30 at the Rite Aid in Granite Falls, just across from Subway at the W. end of town when you come in east on 92.

I know some of you have sick days and spring fever qualifies ;>)

For information contact: Chris Herman (WRRR safety and education chair) 206-525-3969 after noon
