App 7/5 9 AM

Post by PrimaryColors »

Anybody interested in running the App on Th or Fri? Th would have to be early AM. It's not often we get the opportunity to run this at these levels in summer.

I'm interested. This would be a PFD for me. I have a reliable roll, and I'm comfortable on the LJ up to six feet. If the level is appropriate for a PFD at my skill level, and if you're willing to show me the lines, let me know and I'll be there. I could do early morning Thursday if that's what works. Early Friday would probably work as well.

Cheers,


Nate

I am interested, if going Friday and not too early. Could do a later time as well. Also, this would be a PFD for me, but sounds like Nate and I have similar LJ background, though my combat roll is so so (flatwater is solid :) .

How about Friday at 9 AM? I don't have a problem showing you some lines. There are a few class 3 rapids, but all have easier alternatives or portage options.

We'll meet at the takeout then shuttle up to the Putin below the dam. The takeout parking lot is south of the rt 36 bridge.

I'm in for Friday at 9 if that works for everybody else. Thanks for being willing to show us the lines.

Looking for the takeout on Google maps. Is the takeout parking lot the unpaved lot between what look like some old bridge columns, east side of the road, just south of the route 36 bridge?

For directions, check the first Announcement in this forum. Scroll down until you see a couple of posts for the App, one with directions and one with maps.

If anyone else wants to join us, you're welcome.

Ah. You mean the Announcement that says "DIRECTIONS" in giant capital letters?

Sounds easy enough to find. See you at the takeout off of Rte 36 Friday at 9:00 am.
