About this event
The last day before the C&O Canal people pull the plug on the water in our return route - from running the GW Canal. It's getting cooler so we will push the meeting time back to 11:00 at the Violette's Lock parking lot in order to run a loop trip with return via the C&O canal. As always, please let the trip coordinator (AlfCooley@gmail.com - 703 697-6882) know if you will be joining - and be punctual in arriving on time.
The morning weather forecast indicates an air temp in the low 60s under mostly sunny skies. The forecast river level is a low 2.8 ft/ 1,900 cfs on the Little Falls gauge.
PFDs are required for all. Helmets are required for kayakers using spray skirts and highly recommended for all others. Airbags are strongly encouraged for boats without other means of flotation. If you need safety equipment, please advise the trip coordinator in advance.
