Start December right with a paddle down the Sammamish from Redmond to Kenmore. Our recent rain has raised the water level of Lake Sammamish a foot and the Army Corps of Engineers has done their annual winter lowering of Lake Washington two feet, so there will be a noticeable current for our 12-mile paddle on this local treasure. Bring lunch and a warm thermos or two for a quick picnic stop in Woodinville mid-way downstream.

Depending on water levels, we‘ll run a section of the Stillaguamish or Snoqualmie.

Come join us for an evening paddle around Green Lake in Seattle and enjoy the holiday cheer and thousands of luminaries that line the pathway around the lake.

Come observe our next board meeting! It’s a great opportunity to see what’s happening behind the scenes, hear updates on club projects, and get a closer look at how we work together to support our members. We’d love to have you join us!

This is our annual Eagle Float from Marblemount to Rockport on the Skagit River. We typically see 50-150 eagles and if the weather is clear, great views of the North Cascade Mountains to the east. After the float, we usually stop at the Rhodes River Ranch in Oso or a restaurant in Burlington for food and drinks. While there is no real whitewater on this stretch of river there is a strong current, some eddy lines to cross, and some maneuvering around wood and rocks in the river. Sometimes wind is an issue. It is usually very cold. Paddlers should dress for immersion and have flotation in their boats. Suitable for canoes, sea kayaks, rafts, some inflatables. We will meet at the take out: Howard Miller Steelhead Park. From there we will consolidate boats to reduce the number of vehicles at the put-in and eliminate a pre-trip shuttle. Any vehicles left there will need to pay a $5 parking fee. At the Marblemount boat launch, you‘ll need a Discover Pass. We will run a shuttle after the trip.
