by Marin Millar

The 2015 National Wildwater team trials selection will be held on the Skykomish River October 18-19th, 2014. Safety boaters are needed for the sprint and classic events (especially classic!). The race will start BELOW Boulder Drop and end below Fisherman's. The first racer will start at 10:30 am on Saturday for the classic race. You could then play your way down the river. Sprints (each will take about 2 minutes) will be at Fisherman's Rapid and start at 2:30 pm Saturday. Second runs will start at 3:30 pm. Sunday will start at 10 am, second runs at 11am.

If you are comfortable paddling that section of the Skykomish and have basic rescue skills, please come help us out! Please send an email to marin.millar@outlook.com or message me.
