| I got Fri night free, but won't be able to be there until 6:00. Anyone interested? I've been on it a couple of times but won't be overly brave. |

I'll probably be there. If it doesn't go to high, I like it on the low to medium side. ------------- Nomad |

| Perfect Dave - by saying I won't be to brave, I meant that I only intended to do it on the low to medium side and that I'll want to look at each of the drops b/f going over them. |

yo matta, just use Dave as your probe. See where he goes, then look for the bottom of his boat coming out of the bottom of each drop- then don't go that way... ------------- suck it |

My favorite change is Island Drop which now offers the duckNboof on the left or you can run the scrapNlean on the right. |

Oh and those are not names of drops or sections I was just describing the moves. Not claiming any first D's or naming features nick!!!

OK, I didn't make it today, but I am going to make it tomorrow. That's the life of a sales guy, a deal went down and so did my kayaking adventure at FITW! ------------- Nomad |

| Sounds like Dave is in and Trad guy is a maybe. I'll go as long as Dave doesn't cancel or if I hear that Trad guy will be there. I hope to leave at 4:45 and get there at 6:00, but realistically, I'll be leaving as soon as I finish a meeting that could end early or go long, so if anyone would like me to call them w/ an ETA when I get on the road, you're welcome to pm me your phone number and I'll call. |

I will be getting up there around 3 or 4 and should be there for a few hours at least. There probably will be lots of others up there too. SO, no worries. ------------- Nomad |

| Happy to have it hijacked - Thanks for the people who replied. My meeting went long and I didn't get up there until people were leaving. Just as well. It was to high for me, anyway. |
