Event Information

Description
Come out to the Tuesday meeting and pow wow/sing Kumbaya/brainstorm for a western whitewater paddling trip this summer.  Goal will be to get a few folks to submit permit applications for a handful of rivers and discuss some backup trip options barring a permit.  We need to submit for 4-Rivers permit lottery (Selway, Main and MIddle Fork Salmon, Snake River--Hell's Canyon) by end of January.  I think I will throw in a Rogue application as well as Dan hasn't done that yet, so who knows, maybe it would be enough enticement to convince him to sleep on the porch for a few weeks having asked for yet another week off to paddle.

Here's the mother lode of information (and while you're on AW's site http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/list-permits/   

Bring a laptop or tablet if you have one so we can all do some impromptu research on timing to submit applications, typical flows, etc.

Even if it is a stretch you would swing a trip, if you are interested come check it out.

For some additional excitement, after some planning discussion we can stream a really bad ass documentary on the first descent of the Dudh Khosi off Everest (trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDXEHtA3VlI

Feel free to signup so I know there is some sufficient interest...
