I had originally hoped to do a weekend trip on the Upper Sauk and Middle Sauk, but things never worked out, so I opted for a day trip instead. Even though the flow was on the low side (under 1200 on the Upper Sauk gauge) I decided to take my cataraft. There were lots of people, and we split up into several groups.
It was a beautiful sunny day. The rapids were easy and fun, and we didn't have any problems on the run. We ended up going down to the new access at the mill in Darrington. This adds a couple of class III rapids to the run, and extends the run by about an hour at low flows. On nice days, it's probably worth extending the run this way, but most times I think we'll still take out at Bachman Park.
