When: Saturday, November 14, 2026. Meet at Moore Creek Boat Ramp at 10 a.m.
Where: Upper Clackamas, Hole in the Wall to Moore Creek.
Despite the name, R1 Fest isn't a festival, and it isn't a SOLWYRX event. It's a personal community get-together I'm hosting. The idea is to get people who R1 out together on the Upper Clackamas. I'll be R1ing, my dad will be R1ing, and hopefully lots of others will too. SOTAR may bring some small rafts, likely from the Merlin series, like the Excalibur and Lance.
Don't R1? You're still welcome. Expect chill vibes, probably a turtle box, new faces, and a fun day kicking off the winter season.
