A really fine paddle with Ames. This will be a highlight of the year, something new with an expert to guide the way.

I was a bit worried before heading out with Aims cautions about going up the "ditch". Fallen trees and fast current (2.5mph?) could be Fatal . Fatal, that sounded BAD!
WIth him as an expert, we easily navigated past the trees and under the bridges, probably aided by the very high water.
Around 44F when we started, but warmed up a bit and was lovely when the sun came out.
