Howdy ya'll,
The first Gore race was actually '88! Chan started it on Satudays and it has switched some since then; this really is the traditional format.
Mark Joffe and his crew are doing a great job and we owe them a big thanks.
syotr, Bill b

man4now & bill b thanks for the history. I hate it when my memory goes.

A big thanks to Mark, you know it'll be a good time!

I missed Dave F's post, that's what I remember too, mid-late 90's (when I raced) race on Sunday so all us river guides could stuff a few more butts down the river on Saturday.

Now I don't know who has a fuzzy memory. Me or man4now.

J -

You'd probably have a tough time getting in there with the kids. I've only hiked it only once but a stroller is definately out. The trail starts out as a dirt foot path, but about mile in starts to desintigrate. There were some steep areas. By the time you get to kirschbaum, the trail ceases to exist and your scrambling over uneven river rock.
