Looking to either test the plausibility of going up to Cave Wave from FG (unlikely due to effort/payoff/time constraints) or just quaisi bomb down and spend some time at the wave if flows are in the sweet spot (750-1k or a little more, YMMV).
Looking to put on about two, surf the few worthwhile spots on the way down but bypass some of the other stuff in favor of some Cave Wave exploitation!
Forecasts are for such flows, let us see what pans out from the dam operators tomorrow.
Paradise was really fun last weekend, though it could have certainly used a few hundred CFS less flow, but I have that itch.....
So, anyone interested in a surf oriented river quest?

Paddling up from Flaming Geezer would be quite the workout and very time consuming.
If you were really short on time, you could put in at the 169 bridge just upstream of the Cave Wave. That would be a short shuttle and very short paddle. If you were really into abuse, you could do it as a park n surf and hike back up to the bridge.
Put me down as a definite maybe for the whole run.
