Maury Saturday

It's dropping faster than anticipated,37 cfs an hour.Unless it slows down,we will be looking at around 550 cfs.We can customize the trip for different folk,although above lava falls the river is too wide and bony for my rockgrabbing IK.It will be a little warmer,and less wind tomorrow.See you manana

Maury

It should be around 800 cfs on Saturday.At this level Lava is a 3,but harmless.Other rapids will be 2+, but harmless.Big waves and holes...The water will be very cold still... I don't want to hijack Ginny's trip,but would love to meet later, like noon. Should be up to 60 by then....
