i didnt tell you guys, i hit the sandy on sunday after a canoe run down it.

20% success rate..booyaa! even the shitty spots will get you down if you keep trying... i was only there for 30 minutes and just started to figure it out honestly. stupid me, i didnt bring my longsleve rubber to put on top of my shorty drytop..my arms and hands hurt like hell!

as usual, the disclaimer: dont bother going there with out a float cut boat or you probably wont get shit. it was mostly a workout, but pretty fun.

: Yo Stephen,
: depending on the rain, the buffet will be low (but good clear roaming) or juicy (need a few good days of rain to bring it up to the 1200 cfs perfect level). the Barton Buster is in if you have time to do the Barton to Carver run; can check out the big land slide just downstream......and as Tim pointed out, the Weasel is actually dropping in early (it's at 1900 now and 1400 is ideal....so there should be roaming somewhere...keep us posted on your plans...

: ps...sounds like some of the WA spots like 3-forks and dizzyland may also be in...

: www.sinkspots.org has em all

: I'll be traveling in Oregon and Washington for about 2 weeks starting around the 12th. I'm definitely planning on throwing my squirt boat on the van with the plastic toys. Is anything likely to be running?
