Last few days before Skagit Nationals

Rich and I are tapering for the races this weekend. We paddled last Saturday with the river at almost 7000 cfs, and again today at 6300. We are getting a little bounced around, but mostly staying on our lines. Our practice times are a little slower that Tom Wier's, but not much. Paddler's from Georgia, Pennsylvania, California and West Virgina have arrived. It is starting to feel like a National Championship!
