River Trip
Registration is required
Payment In Full In Advance Only
Float bags are mandatory for hard-shell boats.
No Fee
Joint trip with Washington Kayak Club.

We will run the Class III section (can become Class III+ at the high water) of the beautiful Matheny Creek.  Due to the wood hazards, the SOLID Class II+ boat control skills and some experience in Class III rivers (e.g. Sky Boulder Stretch, Lower Green Gorge) are recommended.  This is an expedition with a little climb down on a steep dirt hill at the put-in and a short climb on a trail at the take-out.  The weather is typically wet and cold.  If your vehicle is large enough to sleep inside, that's the best, but if you have to sleep in a tent, be prepared for rain!
