Seattle Area boaters

I will be in Seattle for the month of September leading backpacking trips. Wondering if there are any c-boaters looking to paddle. I like class 4, but willing to paddle anything just to get out on the water.

Cheers,
John

Connect up with the Paddle Trails club: http://www.paddletrails.org/

They probably won't have any class IV trips on the schedule, but can show you a good time on class 3 and 3+.

John,

PTTC is a good suggestion.

Come find a whole bunch of c-boaters at the open boat slalom race on the Chilliwack! Sept 17-18.

I think some plan to paddle on the Chilliwack this weekend. Probably more like class II and III, but a nice, busy river. Lots of other rivers around here are running pretty low this time of year.

Cheers, Pat.
