Meet at 8:30am at 47.33847, -123.30292
It's just under a 2 hour drive from Seattle.
We'll do Fir Creek in the morning (should be 3-4 hours car-to-car), then Rock Creek in the afternoon (also 3-4 hours car-to-car). Rock Creek is about a 15-minute drive from Fir, so we'll pop out of Fir, drive to Rock, eat lunch, then drop into Rock.
If everyone shows up with their gear sorted, and we get going quickly, we should be done with both canyons around 5:30 or 6pm. (of course, be prepared for it to go longer)
Please let me know no later than Thursday at 5pm if you need to borrow gear!
Note: You must register for both canyons. We won't have the flexibility to accommodate for folks just joining for one of the two - it's a full day experience!
