Current River in February

Post by Deuce » Mon Jan 23, 2012 3:49 pm

In honor of our first president's birthday I'll be floating from Pulltite to Two Rivers. Would love to hear any thoughts, and of course all are welcome to join us. We'll likely leave Dogtown early Saturday morning and return Monday evening barring any serious misadventures.
You come too.

Luke:

What date in February? My wife and I will be in the area late in the month.
(SILLY question now that I read your post again!)
Regards,

You will be greeted by the friendliest German Shepherd in Missouri when you arrive at Two Rivers. While he is friendly, he is also a thief . . . at least if you are wearing a coon skin cap.

Luke:

We'll be driving down to Licking, MO on the 17th, so might be able to join you for a day or two. We're familiar with the river from way upstream to Round Spring, but haven't done the lower section.

Want some company? My email and phone # are at the bottom of this post.

Regards,

Luke:
The honor is ours. Thanks!


We decided to come on down a bit earlier so that we could join you on the upper river. (I've edited the above note also...)

We'll be coming over from Boiling Springs on the Big Piney (River not Creek) to join you on Saturday, if that's ok.

Be well.

As a public employee who is otherwise out of vacation time, that holiday weekend would be a great time for me to meet up and paddle with y'all so definitely keep posting as to how the specifics of a rendezvous (maybe Sat morn to Monday afternoon).

Will do Ms. Julie. We're tentatively scheduled to leave LR around 4:00 a.m. Saturday which should allow for a 10:00 launch. We plan to head for home immediately following takeout Monday. Love for you to join for any or all of that. I'll PM you my digits, and if you respond with an email addy I'll add you to Al's and my correspondence.
You come too.
