Seattle Area Paddling

There is a chance I may be able to score a day or two on a Seattle area river when I go out there later this year. I am looking at III-IV (East Coast scale :roll: ) I would need to limit driving distance to less than two hours from the city. Any ideas? I would need feedback on gauges to watch, too. ...

Giuseppe--

Just over a year ago, the first time, but the second time was in early November 2013.

Might be shredding NRG on Saturday 24 May with Mrs. N.E.

Anybody heading to NRG for the weekend, if it gets to or below 3 feet? I haven't been on it in 10 years!! This is my first free weekend in six months and I want it to be doing something not work-related, house or otherwise. Or I might be up for a trip on the Lower G if it has water. J. Robbins 240 t...

Re: Need help identifying which model of 1979 Perception can

I think I can help you out, as I have 4,614 HD-1s (second largest collection in history, next to landfills adjacent to woosy OCers) :lol: The graphics mainly consisted of a stylized perception name and HD-1 with a shadow effect. Sometimes, there was pinstripe as well that ran below the gunnels. I wi...

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

Its' noon on Friday here in DC. I have seen no feedback from anybody about coming to Tandemonium tomorrow. I'm moving to cancel, as it is too far to drive to not have others show up. If you are a wait-until-the-absolute-last-minute decider, you'll have to call me or email me to reactivate the trip. ...

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

So who is going to be at Ohiopyle officially on Saturday?

We should hammer out meet time for shuttle. No activity on this post, so I thought I would just bump it to the top.

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

Yes, last weekend in July is it, based on Democracy. Those of you who are left out in the cold because of this choice can group together on another weekend and I'm sure there are enough of us who would make a trip back out to the Yough for a second weekend. Myself, PAC, Jim Norton, etc. So if PAC wa...

Tandemonium / Tandemnation

Having emerged from the marriage and recent move-in cave, I can finally able to talk about important things. I threw some dates on the poll. The missing weekends are weekends that I already have commitments, so it would be silly to start this thing and then not show up. I might be able to scrape tog...

Re: Gauley Fest -- Sept 14-16 -- Who's running what and when

Possibly Friday on the UY Saturday on the LG Sunday - drive back with possible stop at Valley Falls for my first descent (how is it I have never done the VF?) If you run with us on Saturday on the LG, you should camp with us at the campground on Friday night--see Mr. T (fool!) Grips' post on Campgro...

Can one of the site administrators move KNeal's post to the "Gauley 2012" topic where it belongs?

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

So it would seem, based on PAC and JC's responses, that we should move the Tandemonium to earlier in the summer (no later than end of July) to avoid back-to-school issues. Just looking to make sure we accomplish what we set out to do when we first launched this trip concept--to annoy kayakers. Oh, a...

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

Thanks to all 38 tandem teams who showed up on Saturday and the 35 tandem teams who stuck around for Sunday. We really dominated the river, with its royalex-clogged eddies, "oops I don't have any boat control" wave clearing, and photo-worthy descents of Cucumber and Double Hydraulic. Having successf...

Re: Tandemonium / Tandemnation

I acquired launch permits fro 10-11. If anybody gets some for 11-12, that's fine, as I expect I'll be putting on around 10:59 or so. The folks at the putin have been pretty lax about entry this summer--as long as you have a permit, they tend to let you on without even looking at the time on the card...

Re: Gauley 2012 Plans?

PAC, I have never reserved there--I can't even remember the campground name.

I am trying just to overcome a boat deficiency issue right now, but pledging to be down there festival weekend regardless.

Might want to stick reservation duty on somebody else.
