Needles Family Paddle from Harpers Ferry CG to Brunswick

Some families (kids aged 3 to 8) will be meeting at the put-in at Harper's Ferry campground at 11am to run the Potomac down to Brunswick. It will probably take us most or all of the day. I'm excited to run the Needles at this level. Should be exciting. Please email me if you would like to join. williamsonnh@gmail.com

Note that this family paddle is on the adventurous side (class II+ to III-)! Fingers crossed that we don't swamp our canoes at Whitehorse rapid but if we do we have a raft in our crew to pick up the pieces (haha). With the recent rain the level on the Little Falls gauge is predicted to rise to 4.5ft. The weather that day is 60C and the water is still chilly.
