Hi folks,
With the summer-like weather we're getting, there isn't too much in the way of spring rivers but it's not July yet....
Friday April 2
A few of us would like to get out tomorrow and here are a few options
- Moose river in NY, running just under 5' on the McKeever gauge, class 3-4
- Hudson River in NY, running at 6' on the North Creek gauge but it's hard to tell if water is being
released into the Indian River so getting to the Hudson could be an issue
- Lower Madawaska, running around 100 cms good running level with some nice play spots.
- Petite Nation, running at 30 cms; a good warmup run if you haven't been out yet
Contact me at home after 6:00 PM tomight at (613) 224-8507

Some people have expressed interest in going back to the Great Chazy in NY since the levels have risen nicely.
