OCT - Nelson (Lower Tye) Race is Saturday, May 11

Post by davidp »

Race the Tye east of Rt. 29. We have access to a private take-out, so this is one of the only days you can paddle the entire Lower Tye. And we provide safety at the 2 biggest rapids (Rockpile and Confluence).

PLUS - bus shuttle is included with your registration! Register and drop your boat/gear off at put-in by 10:00. Drive to take-out and catch shuttle back at 10:30. Drivers only, no boats. Race starts at 11.

Just paddled the race course. Low but definitely doable. Beautiful weather forecast for Saturday.
