For those who were unable to attend Seagnar this year (which was epic, btw) here is a nifty little clip put together by Mike Hagadorn and Freefly Systems. I had forgotten about this awesome day until halfway through (when I was walking in), I looked at the big screen and thought, "man those are some sweet angles and extra spiffy drone footage, I wonder what drone that is." Little did I realize... powerful images from the Freefly Systems crew and sick! drone rig over one of my favorite places on the planet. Not to go unmentioned... awesome paddling by a few of the boys.  And if you haven't heard about the proposed dam on the Skykomish, definitely take a minute and have a look at http://www.savetheskyriver.org - http://www.savetheskyriver.org Happy New Year!! http://creeksides.blogspot.com/2015/12/having-fun.html - http://creeksides.blogspot.com/2015/12/having-fun.html ------------- "Don't ask yourself what the world needs.

| Where is that little gorge in the intro (Save the Sky segment)? |

Looks like Bear Creek gorge, on the NF just a ways upstream of the Drum Beater put in for the normal NF run. But I could be wrong... |

Well, that would make more sense considering the segment is about a dam on the SOUTH fork Sky... Wow, if that's a gorge preceding Canyon Falls, I need to sneak in there and take a look. I've seen photos of Canyon Falls proper (a split falls at lower flows), but never of this crack in the earth. Pretty cool. |

The gorge is short and the falls kick things off. Here's a little blip. It is on private property and the locals are kinda nosy about anybody they see out there... just sayin http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/falls.php?num=4663 - http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/nws/falls.php?num=4663 ------------- "Don't ask yourself what the world needs.
