Little Falls
Thursday, Oct 29
Level 2.9, Medium Tide
12 paddlers had a lovely day on the Little Falls run. Beautiful Fall weather, 70 degrees and blue skies, and the trees probably at peak scenery. Plenty of water for Beaver Slide, and a good variety of surfing waves. An experienced crew and no issues on the water, although there was one exciting run through the Dark Side Hole resulting in an impressive tail stand! We all appreciated not having to slog through the mud at the takeout thanks to the pretty good tide and water level. We did not enjoy the duck weed on the canal paddle out, although there was a group of ducks that seemed to like it just fine. I note that in addition to our LF crew, there were 15 CCAers on the Needles Thursday – very active day for our club.
