4/29/10 Update:
Sounds like the road is going to remain closed for at least another week. If you're coming in from the East remember the road will be closed just past Freight Train.
Camping at Oak Bottom campground, $5 ACA "Racer" Fee. Everything else is free. We'll have a raffle if you want to win some gear.
Race from Butler Ledge (either above or below, tbd) to the bottom of either the Maw, Overhang, or below.
Salmon at 8.5' and rising.
When: April 30 - May 2nd, 2010 - Race on May 1st, Race starts 1:23pm at Put-in. (Either Butler Ledge or Nordheimer Creek Beach)
Where: Nordheimer or Bulter section of the Cal-Salmon.
Cost: As always everything is free. Due to permit and insurance issues there is a $5 insurance fee for anyone who is not ACA. Needed: Safety and Volunteers. More on this later but if you can help out I can definitely use your help.
Themed Race: Hippies vs Nascar. Everyone is encouraged to race in their costume, just be sure you'll still float...and doesn't litter the river!
IF YOU PACK IT IN PLEASE PACK IT OUT. LET'S DO ALL WE CAN TO KEEP THE SALMON RIVER BEAUTIFUL!
Camping: Free camping will be available at "Campgrounds A+B" at the Nordheimer Campground (Same spot as last year) or at Oak Bottom Campground if Nordy is closed.
