See the website (visit link) for full description of all caches in the San Jacinto River Basin and potential hazards when paddling to the event.

The 2nd Annual?  Huh?  Team 150% you can't count!  Yep we've already done one this year but this is the "official" one for 2018.

Event Time - 12:00 PM - Event to be held on sandbar near cache NLH 23E. This is a luscious tropical beach (ok its another white river sand bar courteous of Harvey). At the event I will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, and chips. Event will officially start at 12:00 PM but realistically its going to be happening from ~8:00 AM to ~ 1:00 PM as Team 150% will be setup on the sand bar watching everybody grab caches. All who make it to the sand bar, regardless of time, are welcome to log the event.

Round Trip Paddle Distance from BJs Marina to Event ~ 0.88 miles

Paddle Plan Prior To the Event
Prior to the event there will be a paddle to grab more of the caches in the area of the event. Participation in this paddle is not necessary to attend and log the event.

7:00 AM - Meet and launch from BJ's Marina. Depending on mcguyvertwo's availability there may or may not be a separate breakfast event publish.

12:00 PM - Event. Time to be determined based on arrival of participants from upriver. 

12:30 PM - Depart grabbing more caches or head back to BJ's.

Total Estimated Paddle Length - 4.8 miles

Team 150% will meet the group at BJ's Marina in his boat.  He will remain in the vicinity of the paddlers for assistance in the event of injury or someone not being being able to complete the trip.  It is recommended all pack a full change of clothes plus towel in a dry bag in the event of a water dumping.  All other precautions listed on the San Jacinto River Caching page should also be reviewed.

Looking forward to a great paddle!
