Big water for the Upper Klamath Festival- 1 week away now- flows looking like 2 turbines (~4,000cfs) for the festival, continuous class IV+ big water! Check out the details for the kayak, R2/R6, and cataraft races at: http://ukfestival.blogspot.com/. Oh, and tell your friends!

FYI this trip is for floaters and racers.

Yes you have to pay but you dont have to race.

Looks like the UK has come down a bit to 3000cfs.

Still higher than years past and very very fun.

On day 2 were doing the Rogue Nugget and Powerhouse run which is just off I-5 near Gold Hill and will facilitate a timely return to pdx.

Were brining 2 kegs of Sierra Nevada so its probably a good thing we dont have a long shuttle on Sunday...:)

Turns out the Rogue is now juicin!
