A few NW chapter ACC members floated from Boxley to Ponca on the Buffalo Friday March30. One section was pretty hairy; the river had changed during the recent floods. The main channel was now mostly dry, while a secondary channel had become the new main channel. It was an S-turn with several root balls and tree trunks blocking parts of the flow. Of our 5 paddlers, 3 of us elected to portage it, while 2 ran it. The portagers set up safety just in case, but no one needed rescue. All in all, an excellent day: warm, sunny and some of the best wave action around. Posted on YouTube:
