The 2nd Annual Wind River Festival in Stabler Washington provided the setting for a number of great memories as 51 participants enjoyed the rugged Class IV+ whitewater of the Wind River Canyon.
Next up in the Western Whitewater Championship Series (WWCS) is the EF Lewis Race April 11th followed up by some big water action on the Upper Klamath April 18th and 19th.
