Otherwise I would bring my canoe and maybe fish a little along the way. I can get away pretty easily during the day some times, weekday afternoons are hit and miss as I watch out kids after school.

Whitewater Forum : Biginners

Professor Paddle · Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Author: DaleSubject: BiginnersPosted: 06 May 2016 at 7:32amI could do a Club Stretch or something similar Friday evening. I also have a high tolerance for class IIish stuff like the South Fork Snoqualmie or Headworks on the Green. Don't get too distracted by recommended water levels. Headworks and the Lower Gorge can be run very, very low and tend to have decent small surfing with eddy service ...
