My plan for this year is to step back from a formal itinerary and just coordinate this as a social weekend of paddling and camping at Matheny. Assuming levels cooperate, my (personal) plan is to hopefully paddle upper (IV) + middle (III) one day, and ½ middle (III) + lower (IV) the other day. But there are lots of options in the vicinity, both on Matheny itself as well as on the surrounding rivers - everything from class II (Queets), class III (middle Matheny), to class IV+ (V) (Sams). My expectation is that everyone will pick and choose their own adventure and coordinate with those that have similar interests and abilities. If you’re not sure if others signed up will have similar interests & abilities as you, feel free to let me know your expectations and I’ll happily help you partner up for something that should suit your needs. Or better yet, have your regular paddling posse sign up as well… I’m happy to provide guidance on options but won’t necessarily be there to show/guide you down the river. The adventure is all part of OP paddling!

I’ve set each day up as its own trip, so if you feel so inclined, sign up for the days you plan to join. Or if that’s too complicated, just pick one…
