Whitewater Forum : Upper Sultan Release Labor Day?

Professor Paddle · Washington, Oregon and vicinity · 09-15-2015 at 17:34

Author: akayakermikeSubject: Upper Sultan Release Labor Day?Posted: 15 Sep 2015 at 5:34pmFewer people (I saw 11 total) and knowing where the wood was made the upper bit more fun I thought. The section below the diversion dam was a bit manky, but not as bad as I had though and still very enjoyable.
