Please rank your level of fitness.*

Extremely Fit: I ride/run 100s of miles per week, paddle 25 & take the staircase two steps at a time.

More Fit Than Average: I exercise regularly and can easily bike/run/hike/paddle 50-100 miles per week.

Average: I exercise regularly and 20-30 miles of biking/running/hiking/paddling per week would kick my ass, but I'd love every minute of it!

Infrequently: I try to get exercise a few times per week, but life gets so busy it's hard sometimes. But I'm stoked to try as hard as I can!

What level of activity are you interested in for this adventure?*

Type III Fun (aka a DOOM Tour)! I want to be totally exhausted and push myself to the extreme.

Type II Fun: I like to push myself hard, so big mileage days paddling/cycling/hiking/running days are no big deal. However, I don't want to collapse at the end of the day or be in pain for weeks after the course.

Type I Fun: I want to challenge myself and am willing to ride or boat all day and get to camp late in the afternoon. However, I also want a great night's rest and some downtime to enjoy camp.

Just Plain Fun: I love adventure, but I also want plenty of time to hang out at camp. I'm slowly building up my skill set and stamina so I can eventually do more difficult courses.

How resilient are you to cold water? *

Looking at water makes me cold.

I'm a warm weather swimmer.

I'm a motivated swimmer, rain or shine.

I'm a polar bear.

How comfortable are you with swimming?*

I am comfortable swimming in any safe rapid. I can either roll in rapids or self rescue so quickly you probably won't even see that I swam. I am one of those paddlers who can triage, helping rescue various people and their gear. I never lose my gear.

I can swim and self rescue, and I feel comfortable assisting when others swim. I rarely lose my gear.

I can swim and self rescue, but I don't always feel solid enough in bigger, scarier rapids to help my partners. And I sometimes lose my gear.
