Re: Lost lime green Dagger

Shoot, that doesn't sound good. I'm sure you didn't just leave it floating in the water and the river is dropping so if you had it on shore it should still be there. Sounds to me like someone came across it and are now the proud new owners of a Lime Green Sit-In Dagger Kayak. Is there any chance you...

Re: Lost lime green Dagger

A little more information please. Dagger makes many different boats, and Brentwood to Woolsey is a six mile stretch. Did it go under a strainer and never surface or did it float downstream and away from you?

Re: Beer Tipper, She's Back

I have never been on the upper Frog, but know people who have. The main problem is access. The Bidville bridge is the only road that crosses the upper. Great put on/take out but I don't know of another spot. One of these days I am going to run the Bidville bridge to the Ozark Highlands Trail Shepher...

She is Cory, that service eddy on river right is a god send. I didn't surf that lower wave much before because of access, now it is on.

Re: Beer Tipper, She's Back

is the 7 bridges section the same as the "ribbit run"? Nope, higher up stream. Ribbit is Lancaster to Rudy and about an 8 mile run. There is another unnamed ~4 mile section above that from the Grotto to Lancaster, I've only floated it once and really have no desire to do it again unless s...

Beer Tipper, She's Back

She's back and better then ever. I have to trust my friends that all said she was gone, or bypassed by a huge washout on river right. I floated the 7 Bridges section of the Frog yesterday just to see how Beer Tipper changed from the December flood. There is still a wash out to river right, but it is...

Curtis,

Re: Boatball, Wed, 5:30, West Fork Riverside Park

I'm in and so is Liz.

Riley, Erin can borrow Liz's Hero if she prefers a sit in kayak. Jeff you will still need to bring the gear as Liz doesn't have much extra gear.

Let me know if you want to use it as I don't want to load it if not.

My guess is some auto-correct version of a Mohawk?

Pretty sure you can rent wet suits from Nantahala Outdoor Center for pretty cheap.

Talked with Jeff, and he said that you could barely see the low head dam the water was so high. Boatball will be canceled this evening.

We are getting hammered here. I would image that the West Fork is going to be bank full if not flood.

Re: Team Blackfly here Heading to the SSKP Noon

Team Blackfly got here late last night. We are drinking coffee, motivating, and will be up at the Ford around 12:00pm.

Come on up and try some boats out.
