That ought to put enough in the river to run on Thursday afternoon, right? I will already need to be in the area, so I plan to pack gear and be there by 1 pm, maybe earlier.  Anyone want to join?

I enjoyed paddling with all y’all today. Not a PFD, but best boat dent I’ve made and I tried rock wheels for the first time. I like em.

Roselle gage hit almost 5’ (27” at D bridge). It’s down now about 24 hours after the precip jumped, then rose a bit for 6 hours. A brief storm just went through today.

I’d be happy with a II+ run, but can handle more. Anyone, please reach out if you’re available and interested.
