NEW CREEKS MAY BE AVAILABLE LATER THIS WEEK 3/21-23/12

A lot of rain is predicted in the next few of days for the watersheds of these two new creeks:

B: Class II+; 2 miles long; 78 feet per mile; fully scouted and hazard-free;
narrow and flume-like with quick maneuvering required; shallow with
narrow passages through brush (similar to Thompson Creek); strong
possibility this will be a first descent; Glenwood area. Probably not
suitable for open boats due to tightness. Photos at

C: Class II+; 5 miles long; 37 feet per mile; fully scouted and hazard-free;
many small falls and much surfing potential on this fair-sized creek; first
two miles narrow but clean; fast paced throughout; good scenery;
Glenwood area; Probably suitable for open boats. Photos at

I will be watching the radar to determine if enough rain falls in the right places. Let me know if you want to get in on any of these. Full data will be published after the first(?) descent. I'm tied down on Tuesday and maybe Wednesday, too.
