“Cloudy with a chance of light rain and snow. Highs in the mid 30s to lower 40s. Southeast wind to 10 mph in the morning becoming light. “

First snow of the winter is scheduled for Saturday. It wouldn’t be right if the weather Gods didn’t throw something fun at us for the Annual Deception Pass Dash. Gusty winds, rain and snow… every year racers come out, dressed in Goretex, neoprene and fleece — giddy to see what conditions will greet them once they leave the protected waters of Bowman Bay. This year, 171 adventure-seeking paddlers pre-registered 6-mile race!!!

Brandon and I will be there, me racing my Stand-Up Paddle Board, and Brandon racing Sterling Kayak’s new British Style Expedition Kayak the Grand Illusion.

Come to watch, or come to race! Either way, bundle-up and come out to enjoy the fun!
