VAN DUZEN RACE

When: The first day that the Duzen peaks over 7,000 cfs. Meet up at 4 p.m. Race starts at 4:20.

*Due to the fact that almost everyone is out of town these days for the holiday season, we are postponing the race until after January 5. Hope this does not disappoint anyone, but with the late rain this season, the Duzen has not cooperated with our original intent of having the race at a time when all can attend. See you all there, same time, same place.

Where: Grizzly Creek parking area, the normal put-in for the lower Duzen run.

Bring your playboats and your great attitudes. The race will be a mass start form the put-in, so elbow pads might be nice as well.

Prizes will be awarded for top finishers in the men's and women's categories. Beers will be awarded to anyone with a pulse and a kayak.

Directions: From Arcata, take the Hwy. 101 south until you reach the junction with Hwy. 36. Turn on East on Hwy. 36 and drive 17 miles until you reach Grizzly Creek Redwood State Park. The parking lot is on the right. Drive time from Arcata to put-in is around 45 minutes.

Hope to see all you Humboldt paddlers out there!
