Oh I wish it would rain



But a little snow is ok too




On  Saturday we were  greeted with high flows and amazing weather.  Followed by waking up hungover on Sunday to a snow blizzard.  "Need to harden the f*ck up mate".






Over the weekend we ran a few laps on Icicle and a couple on Tumwater.  I'm amazed every time I paddle around the Leavenworth area, not so much by the world class whitewater. More amazed that the majority of class V boaters in Washington have not paddled these stretches of river.  That's ok leave it for the honey badgers.

The log pile on  the right makes this rapid very consequential.  Not for Dan though







Roight now time for Tumwater.







Even though this whole run is roadside pictures are usually few and far between, we managed to get a couple of shots of Chaos a very well named rapid.



Saturday





Sunday


The next two shots were taken by Scott Waidelich
