I'm down with this plan. (I'm not sure if that makes it four or if I'm one of the three.)

Are you guys really going to run the II / III race course thing on Friday? Although I hear there are some good front surfing spots on it, I'm concerned that it will be a violation of my contract if I do something like that if something else good is running.

Don't know what we are running but nothing says cool like a boater that appreciates ALL levels and styles of paddling.

YAY! We now have 4 for friday. Can I get a fifth.

I used to think that way, too......until we passed up Goshen at or around Tommy Beat Down Level to run Buffalo Creek with highs in the upper 30's / low 40's.

Perhaps a 5th & 6th (Ken & me) - we'd probably just come up Fri am. I agree w/ appreciating all sorts of paddling, tho I am partial to the Cranberry.

As for Buffalo Ck, Dave - don't knock it. It nearly swallowed our pal, Justin. Nothing to snear at. Actually, it's too bad the bridge work messed w/ the rapids there.

I'm not against getting a run or two in on the Cranberry Friday either. if it's running at a good level I may be swayed. Though I haven't run the Elk yet and it is right behind our Hotel.

Nope. I think it's getting close, though. We'll see you then.

Webster Spring's Cabin

Post by Stan Heatwole »

There may be two more of us interested in the cabin. I asked for the time off but won't get my schedule until next week. If I can get off Lee Keller and I plan to come out and would try and get there to paddle on Fri. The last time we paddled there we were caught in a hail storm. Another reason for wearing helmets when you canoe. :roll:

Stan, let me know.

IF everyone who has expressed an interest actually shows (which will probably be water dependent), then I'm going to to ahead and say that the cabin is now "full" and am going to start a waiting list. (I've had about 15 people express interest.)

I'll join you

Post by etharris »

I would like to join ya'll for the III-IV trips that weekend. I'd definetly be down with paddling on that friday if something tasty has water (i.e. cranberry, back fork, etc). I'll worry about where I'm staying later. Probably going to just take my tent.

Later
