Dave and Jesse, if you are going to be heading out on Friday, let me know. The Green still looks good, if no one really wants to drive up to the Sky...

Jesse, I'm no expert on the Green, but Dave is. Although he takes more challenging lines than I'm comfortable with he can still point you in the right direction. Anyway, the upper looks a little low now, but the lower would still be fun and it requires less guidance. How does that sound? 11:00? 12:00? At Flaming Geyser?

Of course you can come! Sounds good to me, I'm going to give Dave a call and see what he wants to do. Blair & Brett, are you guys interested in paddling the Green tomorrow? I'd rather do the upper section, but if it's not in.... Then I would be interested in doing the lower run. Noon sounds good to me, however, I would meet earlier if peeps have plans.

I would be up for running the Upper Green Gorge. I've done it at 850 before and it's fine. The routes are all the same but there are a couple rapids that you'll scrape a rock or two on. Pipeline actually become a bit harder because you have to punch the hole. If others are up for the Upper I am too. I would like at least 3 people to go though.

Dave, would you be interested in doing the upper? I'm down for it... If we don't figure this out, as in the lower or upper, we could always meet at flaming gyser state park and decide there... Sounds like fun though! When you paddle the upper or lower at this level, do you all take your creek or play boat?

I'm up for the upper...or down for the upper... Whatever. If Courtney says it's good then I'm in. If we're all happy with the upper let's meet at paradise at 11:00.

I'm good to go for Upper or Lower. I'll still assume we're meeting at FGSP @11. Otherwise, Jessie gimme a call if that changes. Looking forward to it!!

OK, I am back from Oregon and filled my belly and am now looking at plans for tomorrow.
Let us meet a Flaming Guyser at 11am and we will see who is up for what there.
The upper is pretty low, so probably just the lower tomorrow.
