16(!) paddlers took advantage of the superb weather (sunny and in the high 70s) to paddle this morning. In view of the numbers we divided into three groups: John S and Alan G ran Seneca Breaks; Hendrik vO, Mikey B, Tim T & Wayne McD ran the George Washington Canal as the river runners; followed by the the eddy catchers – Barb B, Dan R, Diane H, George, Gus A, Jackie H, Jamie H (PFD), John E, Sharon O & Toni B. The river was at a moderate level on the Little Falls gauge – 3.31’, 4610 cfs. We were greeted at the put-in by a pair of circling eagles. No major carnage to report, although one paddler did engage in an unscheduled examination of the river bottom. C&O turtle count = 25.
