Just a Quick reminder for tomorrow!
August 12, 2014, 6:30 PM, The New Town House restaurant: August Monthly Meeting –
Presentation: Pecos River Descent in Flood Stage by Travis Burkhardt, Tim Scofield, and Tom Fort.
There should be some energy and enthusiasm here as they substituted sleep for getting to the river while it was up! Includes pictures, GoPro head cam footage, info re. put in, takeout, and hazards to be noted. They hope to bring friends from the Pecos community they met during the run. It doesn’t run often– see what it was like.
Also: Gila Update: Call for AWC Action AGAINST the Gila Diversion Project.
Norm Gaume will update you on the ways you can support the Gila River. We are at the 11th hour of decisions.
The article below will give you a lot of information and fill you in more on Norm’s presentation.
