   Topic: Time on the Tieton Discussion Thread
Posted: 09 Sep 2007 at 6:33pm |
This is the Time on the Tieton discussion thread. Please post any questions below. Remember the actual Trip Details are located on the Time on the Tieton | Trip Page It's the river we all love to hate. The river we swear we will never go back to, but always do anyway.
I am leaving Friday afternoon, and plan to spend the weekend. I have room for up to two more boaters in my truck (play boats only...).

I'll be up there on Sunday, the 16th. Can't go saturday, though, since we've got a show that's pretty much taking up my whole day.

Darn it. I hate when she stays logged in on my laptop. Anyway - we'll be there with Tobin. I don't know if we're heading over Friday or Saturday morning. - Adam

For those who want to rock saturday night, I'm playing a relatively high profile show in the Tri-Cities (less than 2 hours from the Tieton) Saturday night. We start playing at 7. Outside of that, enjoy the toga party and I'll see you hungover bastards on sunday.

I'd like to tag along for one of the runs however I'll only be able to make it for one day. Do you know what time you'll be planning to put on each day?
Thanks,
Ethan

I was going to make a joke about "high profile" and "Tri cities", but elected not to, as I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.
That said, see you all out there. I'll be leaving the seattle metro on Friday in the early afternoon, so if anyone wants a ride... I've got one passenger - should have room for two more.

I'm thinking about heading over friday late morning... Where is everyone thinking about camping? WRRR has a group site that James and I stayed in last weekend, but i'm sure it will be very crowded this weekend.

Haha, well, by "high profile" I mean an arena show with an expected attendance of over 1000 people (we're playing first, so we'll be lucky to have 250 there for our set, but that's not the point), radio and tv commercials, and other such exposure.

less dusty there!! Its a nice place to put-in too bout 1 mile

I want to remind everyone to bring warm clothes! I forgot how
damn cold it gets at night and in the mornings over there. We
were so cold on Sat morning we thought about not doing an early run and
waiting for the afternoon!! With the fire ban its even tougher to
stay warm at night...
Love,
Horner

Funny...
Just good natured humor...
Seriously though, that sounds like a pretty major event. Congratulations and good luck. I'd come, but I don't think I'd fit in that well at that sort of event.

I'm pretty sure I'm in. Probably head over friday afternoon. May or may not have a new boat to try out as well. Hope the duct tape holds! Not sure if I'm leaving strait from Renton or heading back through Duvall. I'll probably have room for one other person if you need a ride. What's the dilly with the Toga party? I'm assuming a sheet and lots of booze??!! ![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley20.gif")

The toga party is a yearly tradition at the Tieton. Wear a toga
and party on! The biggest campfire I have ever seen was burning
at my first toga party years ago. They dropped an old growth
stump on it that was about as big as the raft trailer they brought it
in on. You couldn't even get 15 feet away from the thing without
burning your hair!! From what I hear the burn ban won't affect
the fire for the toga party. It has been at the same spot for the
last few years, near the take-out. Look for the sign on your way
down the river on Sat. music starts at 8....
