<p>I'll take a stab at it - for those who are travelling from a distance, there's a lot to see. First off, the west slope of the Cascades is almost a rain forest. There are first growth trees</p>

<p>This year's event was a bit quieter than last years, probably because of the change in ownership of the lodge - and a few of the more central folks weren't there for personal reasons. The highlights for me were meeting new folks and getting a chance to run the McKenzie river in a McKenzie boat. </p> Anyone have pictures to share…tag:woodenboatpeople.org,2016-05-06:1312281:Comment:1367152016-05-06T01:49:45.483ZMike Thomashttp://woodenboatpeople.org/profile/MikeThomas833

<p>We will not be able to pick up our boats on the lawns at the lodge. There are several boat ramps downstream depending on how long of a float you want to take. Silver Creek is only .5 miles.</p>

<p>I will be there! Do we float from the lodge to Ben and Kay Doris or pick our boats up from the lawn at the lodge?</p>
