Meet 9.30-9.45 to shuttle at 10.00am. Paddling time should be about 4 hours, Elm Flats to Peterson, with a break for lunch at Dobson.
 
You will need to have a National Forest vehicle permit but no watercraft permit (they aren't required after Labor Day).  If you don't have a senior or annual pass, you can purchase a one day pass for $5 at the parking lot.

Given the possibility of tight turns and downed trees, you must be able to maneuver your boat sideways across the stream using back ferries.

Since there is no limit on capacity, be aware that if you are the 8th or more person to sign up I will need for you to be willing to help with the shuttle. Contact Jacqui if that would be a problem.
