   Topic: Holy crap! The Green

If the Level holds up at 1800cfs, then it would be wise to get on the Green while you can, it so rarley runs anymore due to thirsty Seattlites draining the water out of it. If it goes down, then the Middle would be a great alternative.

The river has spiked to 3000cfs, after 3000 it's officialy a big water solid IV run, should be fun, but I'm not sure if I'll bring my play boat.

I've only ran it up to 4200, but I trust you, so play boat it is! I was hoping for more to join, the gorge is so awesome, it's really worth every penny of the five bucks for parking. Come on everybody, join us!

Just so you know I dont park in the park... that sounded wierd, but I park at the bridge... Free parking that way...
Not that 5 bucks is anything, I just dont really thing that park spends the funding they receive very wisely.
See ya tomorrow, by the way I have never done the gorge above 7500 lol

Anyone interested in doing the Headworks saturday before the gorge? If there's any interest, that would make shuttling easier!

Pedro if you hit the headworks up early I will do your shuttle back up to the top for you...
We will probably be at the bridge around 10:30 - 11:00

James, thad be dope if you could do that, i have a friend coming along who isn't sure she's ready for the gorge yet, so i figured the headworks would be perfect, and then possibly the gorge if she's up for it. Anyhow, the bridge you speak of, is that the ledge takeout? If so, i can meet you there around 1030-11. exxxxcellent...

James and Dave -- Call me if you check this in the morning. I'll be up and ready to go -- don't know exactly how to get to the green -- let me know what the plan is if you can. 425-736-7101
Otherwise I'll probably head out to the Middle Middle.
Thanks,
Brandon
