| Whitewater Forum : Upper Sultan May 6th !!!!!! |
Author: Fun Eli Subject: Upper Sultan May 6th !!!!!! Posted: 07 May 2017 at 10:28pm Thank you to all the great boaters who came out and made this release such a success! It was good to see so many people taking advantage of this opportunity to run such a great river. I sincerely hope we can get as many people showing up for future releases. If you participated in this release, please take a couple minutes to fill out the survey, letting Snohomish PUD know what you liked and disliked about this release. Also, please thank them for letting us shuttle boats from the dam all the way up FS-6122 to the Sultan River Canyon Trail. They really did us a huge favor by making that possible, so please let them know how much you appreciate it. Follow this link and click on the little blue box to the right that says "Take Our Survey!": http://www.snopud.com/PowerSupply/hydro/jhp/jhprecreation/whitewater.ashx?p=2118 Given certain events, I do want to stress that this is a run for class IV+ or V boaters only. It may be rated class IV, but given the length of the run, the complete inaccessibility for most of the run, and the potential for unpredictable wood hazards, this should really be viewed as a run for class V boaters or people already stepping it up to class V. For most of the run, hiking out is just not an option. If you swim and lose your boat or it breaks going over a drop full of water, it's going to be really bad! If you lose your paddle and don't have a breakdown, it's going to be really bad! If you get hurt and can't continue downstream, it's going to be really bad! While hiking out at the diversion dam is theoretically possible, you should not even consider it an option unless there is some sort of emergency, and should instead plan on taking out at or bellow the power plant. We are in the early days of getting releases on this river, and access is dependent on showing the Snohomish PUD that we are a group of responsible boaters who are not going to cause them problems. While the releases were negotiated as part of the dam relicensing, this is a cooperative arrangement between the Snohomish PUD and the boating community, and a lot of what they do is simply because they are being generous. Releases on the Upper Sultan are by no means guaranteed, and they can make our access to the river as easy or difficult as they see fit. Any incidents on the Upper Sultan reflect badly on the boating community as a whole. If someone were to get hurt or lose their boat and require a rescue, it would jeopardize access to this gem for the entire boating community. This is NOT a run for stepping up to class IV! This is a run for people who already paddle class V at least occasionally. There is no hiking out of the Upper Sultan! Also, keep in mind that given the potential for wood and the tight canyon walls, it's possible that at some point in the future we might encounter a must-run rapid (cannot be portaged) with wood hazards, turning an otherwise class IV rapid into a solid class V-V+. While this is a fantastic river, and will be a pleasure for even the most hard-core class V+ boater, you should really only be attempting this run if it is half a step BELOW what you normally paddle. It would be easy to get in trouble in such a remote, inaccessible gorge, and no one wants to see anyone get hurt or killed. Please use your head, and don't attempt this run unless you have the skills and physical stamina to paddle it safely. I hope to see so many people out there next year, or whenever the next release happens. -Eli |
