Background Info

The watershed relay is a multi-sport event that follows the flow of the White Salmon River from its source (Mt Adams) to its mouth. It's a very loosely organized event with no formal timing, prizes, or organization - really just a group of folks getting together to tackle a challenging goal in a beautiful setting.  Anyone is welcome to join in.  It can be done in a few different ways.  Here are some ideas - though anything goes, so be creative:

• Team - each member takes on a segment.  In the past, whole teams have climbed the mountain and skied down and then each member takes on a different segment for the rest.
• Pair - this is a great way to do it.  Typically, both members climb and ski, then segments are alternated (therefore someone's always available to drive the shuttle car).  Both members can also finish together by canoeing across the Columbia.
• Solo - this isn't as bad as it sounds.  It's all downhill after all!  Its pretty easy to stash gear along the way for this
