A separate trip from Jon Almquist's FITW trip.  FITW is a very narrow river, so group size needs to be limited.  Kyle will lead a separate group so we can get a few more folks on FITW.  Kyle is an ACA Level 5 - Advanced Whitewater Kayaking Instructor, and has paddled FITW multiple times.

Fall into the Wall (FITW) is a short stretch of class IV-IV+ whitewater.  It is located at the crest of Snoqualmie Pass.  Are you solid on the regular class IV runs such as the Upper Green River Gorge, NF Sky, Peshastin Creek…?  Do you want to step it up a notch and experience some steeper gradient?  If so, FITW might be just the ticket. We’ll go slow, scout, and break down the run into easy-to-digest bits and pieces. 

Please be flexible with the date / timing.  Water level is key for first timers (or at least for first timers that might want to join this trip).  While we had to pick a date to get this on the event calendar, the chance that water levels will be appropriate on this specific date are limited and being flexible will allow us to jump earlier (or later) to catch that perfect level.
