Last Weekend - Tumwater Canyon

Oh Snap! Tumwater is good to go!

I was fortunate to catch a bunch of the Leavenworth locals while they were out having a good time and screaming down Tumwater Canyon at mach speed. 

Tumwater was around 2500 on Saturday and by Monday it was down just under 2300cfs.

It pains me to say, but with how quickly it was dropping; Tumwater will be out fo the season pretty soon.

Where are they? Sorry guys, we're slow like that.

Doctor Pat aka Popeye.

Here we have some chargers showing us the lines through Last Exit. This rapid is tough at any level, but 2000+cfs and it feels like you're riding a railroad boxcar down a ski-slope. Intense!

Jah Himself takes the meat line:

Ellie Wheat jumped out to grab these shots of Scott Waidelich and I.

This guy was crushing marriage vows less than 24 hours prior to the shot. 

Alternate lines happen:

Afternoons in Tumwater are the best. Every drop is backlit and your view as you drop over pour over after pour over is perfect.

On our last lap of the weekend; the team was down to two. Jeremy Bisson and I went skin to the wind and rallied down The Wall while Adrian and Scott shot the next series of photos.

Until next time.

Video - 4Th of July Gnarfest

Over the 4th of July weekend, Joe Howard and I did a little bit of roadtripping. We drove down to the South side of Mt. Rainier for the Clear Fork of the Cowlitz. It was a bit low, but super fun. Then we grabbed a quick lap on the Ohanapecosh. From there it was a 3.5 hours of driving but North to Icicle Creek for probably the last laps of the season. Then we topped the weekend off with a handful of Tumwater laps. A great weekend was had.
