I talked to a local today. They informed me that Snohomish County is planning on locking a gate which would be north of the existing homes.
It was reported to me that only residents? were going to be able to get a key. They also have to sign a waver to obtain the key. There is supposed to be meeting in Monroe on May 1 2007. There are are two gates that could be locked, one below rooster tail, and one well above bear creek falls. This would mean portaging BC falls, Drumbeater, and Rooster Tail then taking out somewhere below the washout. Bill Petty 425 514 5873 RPMMAX@juno.com ------------- RPMMAX |

Damn, we can't let them shut this run down. Any details on the meeting? I'll go and represent for my aquatic brothers.

Seems like paranoia. Who loots @ the end of a 15 mile long dead end road? Oh, that's right TWEAKERS!!!
Tweakers suck. (just my 2 cent worth)

If anyone talks with any NF locals we should explain to them how it would be to their benefit for us to be in there. It is simple math. We don't want any of their stuff, we just want to run the river. In addtion, we could act as a sort of 'patrol' while we are in there; i.e. eyes and ears.
