Registration

Member Registration
Active club members, including kayaking professional and lifetime. Provisional acceptance, pending approval by the trip organizer if this is a paddle

Registration is closed

This trip is limited to members with a wet exit certification (except for level 1 trips when the paddler is not using a spray skirt....if the paddler is wearing a spray skirt on a level 1 paddle, the Wet Exit Certification is REQUIRED). To successfully register you will need to sign into your OOPS member account, and your account will need to be a member of the "Wet Exit Certified" group if you intend to wear a spray skirt. Your acceptance is conditional on approval by the Organizer, who may contact you with questions about your skills and equipment. If the measured water temperature is different enough from that listed below to warrant a change in required immersion protection, the Organizer will contact all participants and the Trips Board member with the update at least a day before the trip.

Activity Title: Coldwater Lake, L1, 7-14-22
Date of Activity: 7/14/2022
Narrative: I was attracted by the Moulton Avery's post of Coldwater Lake in Facebook. It is a beautiful mountain lake that only exist 45 years ago. It has superb scenery and sparkling clear water up to 180 feet deep. It is in the southwest Washington and takes about 2 hours drive. I would likely to invite you to join the trip to explore this beautiful lake.
