With the last of the runs in the Pacific Northwest dropping out, we decided it was time to begin the search for water. Since there had already been some discussion about heading to the Shasta Boys premiere of Wet Dreams, we decided to check out what was running in California. It just so happened that there was a scheduled release on the North Fork of the Feather for the same weekend...SOLD!
After a fun night in Shasta with Shon and the boys we were off again on our quest for whitewater. A few cosmo quizzes and Madonna sing alongs later, we arrived at our destination, boof heaven. Let the fun begin!
There were three sections running, Roger's Flat, Tobin, and Lobin. Roger's Flat is a fun class III section that provides lots of splashes and giggles and also serves as a nice warm up for those wishing to step up to class IV on the Lobin section.

Next up is Tobin, a class IV-V section of boulder garden goodness. It is only 1.2 miles long, but has enough boofs and boogie to keep you smiling for days. The greatest thing about this section is the ease of snagging a quick shuttle and doing it again!

The lowest section is Lobin, a class III-IV run that starts off with a bang then mellows out over the next several miles.
Lobin!
Mission : Successful! We even got to break up our days on the water with a giant star watching slumber party at the Tobin put-in.
Dear Cali, We Heart You! Heart, Northwest Livin
It looks like there is another release the last weekend in September so pack your bags and go get your boof on!
