California 100


MAY 25-26, 2013


California will have its first Paddle Sport ultra-marathon on May 25, 2013: A 100-mile paddle race from Redding to Chico along the Sacramento River.
 
The race is hosted by Rivers for Change with support from the California Paddle Sports Council. The California 100 will start under the Sundial Bridge on the Sacramento River in Redding, CA and race to Chico, CA. This moving water round the clock event is open to all paddle sport enthusiasts. Sea Kayak, Marathon Canoes, Surfski, Stand Up Paddle Boards, ICF sprint boats, Outriggers are all appropriate and welcome. We will host Adventure, Team, Relay and Competitor categories.
 
California’s longest river, the Sacramento flows south from Mt. Shasta through Oak woodlands, rolling hills, and open plains with views of Mt. Lassen to the East and the Yollo Bolly Wilderness to the west. The wide river bed accommodates reliable flows from 8,000 up to 20,000 cfs and above, yet remains a well mannered giant due to the low gradient. Largest rapids are class II at most, though current can be swift. The mild climate, sweeping vistas, easy access points and reliable flow combine to make this a wonderful venue for paddle sport of all sorts, accommodating the experienced marathoner and the first timer as well.
