Meeting Place : Drive out I-90 and exit at Alpental. before you actually head up to alpental you can turn west and head down to franklin falls. Turn left (west) and head down. In winter this is snowed in and your hike begins here.Head down to where the freeway crosses over the road. 100 yards down river is FITW Proper, a few hundred meters below this water fall is the beginning of the run.

This is the FITW Thursday discussion thread. Please post any questions below.

Remember the actual Trip Details are located on the FITW Thursday | Trip Page

Planning on hitting FITW after work Thursday.  Level should be good for 1st timers so if anyone wants to see the lines I'll be happy to show them down.

I am thinking FITW may be at a good level thursday night for a run...if it is too high we can always do the MM. I would like to get up there around 4pm though...got to work in the morning and dont want to be out until 10pm again...some of us work from 6am until 3pm...

I'm game to check it out.  Never been down but have been wanting too.  I could make 4:00 or 5:00.

I think Im going to cancel the trip. Everyone wants to go earlier than I can get there and the flows are a bit juicier than what was forecast.

We are going up at noon today. Probably too high for us, but we are going to take a look at it then probably run the MM around 1pm today. Tired of the late night runs and got a half a day off today...

the gage is just responding to the rain in the valley. I am guessing flows will still be medium (could be wrong). There will still be people up there from 4-6...
