Swift water class this Sat. Please read if you are attending
Here is the plan for the upcoming weekend and a bit that I have learned about the location and logistics. Im sure many of you know more so pipe in if you need.
The land on the west side of Mile High Rafting is available to park in and have access to the river as it is Town owned/managed now. They are in the process of gearing towards a WW park in this area as we speak so they said its all good. If you plan to be in the swift water class please be there and ready to go at 8:30am. That means try to show up by ¼ after. Mike is going to do a lot of dry land stuff in the a.m hours and move towards the water for the later part of the class. Since we have just over 30 people there will be 3 instructors with groups of 10 with Mike overseeing it all and doing the in water entrapment. Gear you need for the day= PFD, Throw rope, proper river shoes, helmet, any gear you need to keep you warm. As for payment, bring cash for Mike. I have nothing to do with the class except helping to get you all together. Mike is handling it all.
The location is the lot to the West of Mile High rafting in Lawson. MHR has nothing to do with this so please respect their property and park only in the lot next door. Also, there is no restroom there so do your business before you arrive. And NO, do not go over to MHR and use theirs. We really want to respect their space. In addition there is NO CAMPING at this location however there is camping available down stream...
To find the PWTPs and Swift water location simply get off at Lawson or Dumont and drive upstream till you see us on the right. It will be pretty obvious.
I will be cooking out for the lunch on Sat. and Sun. but no breakfast Sunday morning. I had planned to camp and cook but since the camping is a no go there I will do lunch both days.
The swift water will start early but the PWTPS will be from 11-3. I will be there the whole time with boats so feel free to try one out if you get there early.
I look forward to seeing you all there and am glad so many are interested. It is a great class and one that everyone should take. See you Sat.!
