I got Fri night free, but won't be able to be there until 6:00. Anyone interested? I've been on it a couple of times but won't be overly brave.

I'll probably be there. If it doesn't go to high, I like it on the low to medium side.

Perfect Dave - by saying I won't be to brave, I meant that I only intended to do it on the low to medium side and that I'll want to look at each of the drops b/f going over them.

yo matta, just use Dave as your probe.  See where he goes, then look for the bottom of his boat coming out of the bottom of each drop- then don't go that way...

My favorite change is Island Drop which now offers the duckNboof on the left or you can run the scrapNlean on the right.

OK, I didn't make it today, but I am going to make it tomorrow. That's the life of a sales guy, a deal went down and so did my kayaking adventure at FITW!

Sounds like Dave is in and Trad guy is a maybe. I'll go as long as Dave doesn't cancel or if I hear that Trad guy will be there. I hope to leave at 4:45 and get there at 6:00, but realistically, I'll be leaving as soon as I finish a meeting that could end early or go long, so if anyone would like me to call them w/ an ETA when I get on the road, you're welcome to pm me your phone number and I'll call.

I will be getting up there around 3 or 4 and should be there for a few hours at least. There probably will be lots of others up there too. SO, no worries.

Happy to have it hijacked - Thanks for the people who replied. My meeting went long and I didn't get up there until people were leaving. Just as well. It was to high for me, anyway.
