Wednesday Evening Paddle

About this event

On Wednesday evening we will paddle the Anglers to Lock 10 run again, which is a 4 mile long run with three Class II rapids, perfect for an after-work paddle.

We’ll meet in the Lock 10 parking at 6:00PM where we can work out the shuttles up to Old Anglers Inn. We’ll have to keep an eye on the water level as we get closer to the trip. We should have the green light if the water level is around or above the 2.7 ft mark.

If the water level falls below the 2.7 ft mark (Little Falls Guage), our back up plan will be to go to the Old Anglers Inn put in and play in the chutes. Should this be the case, please go straight to the Old Anglers Inn lower parking area at 6:00 PM.

PFDs are required for all. Helmets are required for kayakers using spray skirts and highly recommended for all others. Airbags are strongly encouraged for boats without other means of flotation. If you need safety equipment, please advise the trip coordinator in advance. And finally, be prepared for the predicted temperature for that time of day and bring plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated.

If you are interested in joining us, please contact Dean Hawes at dean@haweslink.net, especially if this is your first time on this run. Last minute paddlers are welcome as well, but please arrive at the meeting spot by 6:00 PM. I will send out a status email around lunch time on Wednesday to those who notify me they are going.
