Left the camera at home! Not my plan... just happened.
It was great. We do this section often. It took about 5 hours river time. I do not count the unload gearing up time.
It was an easy paddle but the white-throated beer suckers were pretty thick between Tyler Bend & Gilberts. Once we got past the first big pod not a problem.
The river was at 6ft all the way. I do not do this section less than 6ft. I have done it at 7ft and was done in about 4 hours.
The shuttle to Carver is so much more that we have never put in there... would not mind going above Carver and coming down to Woolum or Bakers Ford. Just need someone to shuttle with.
Right now I am fighting the urge to do Rush to Buffalo City but can not take off work... the river would be at a perfect level from what I have been told.
We are going to start exploring other rivers but the shuttle issue is our only hold back.... I know I can get a shuttle on the Buffalo.
I hope for a wet summer!
