Lil Mo @ Narrows Dam Friday 8/15

[Liz Caldwell]

I and several others will be paddling the Little Missouri below the Narrows Dam at Murfreesboro this Friday . Please feel free to join in. It's a class 1-II river that is lots of fun on a hot summer day.

The generators are turned on at 11 a.m. We are planning to be geared up and ready to paddle by 11. You want to be at the front of the release for the most fun and surfing.

Be aware that space can be an issue at the bridge takeout.

Try to be at the put-in by 10:45. Be there by 10:30 if you want to run your vehicle to the bottom and get back in time to launch. There is no formal shuttle. Either make arrangements with friends beforehand, or catch a ride back to the top at the end of the day.

(it's not really a low water bridge...we meet on the near side of the river closest to Murfreesboro, so assuming you are coming from Murfreesboro and you cross the bridge over the Lil Mo - you've gone to far. Look to pull off on the right before you cross the river)

Hey Liz,
Count on me and Ed Volman being there! This will be Ed's first time on this run. He will be in a kayak and is in the process of looking for a skirt for his boat, it's a Dagger Blackwater. He may need to borrow one to make the run. See ya Friday.
Update: Jim is lending Eddie one of his boats, so Ed doesn't need a skirt for his personal boat. 10:30 at the bridge!

Liz,

I think I am going to try and make it over there too. I want to try my Aire Force again

Best Regards
Jim

I'll be there with the Super Puma and a couple boys, ages 10 and 11. Also, Shirley Mitchell plans to come.

Shaping up to be a good group. A raft, canoe, whitewater kayak, rec kayak and inflatable kayak all in a group of less than a dozen paddlers!

[Deuce]

If you see this man at the put in do not approach.

[Jetlab67]

Perfectly harmless. It's on now!

[Scott Fisher]

Count me in. I'll be in my wreck boat.

[DeBo]

Cowper and I are in.

[aquagirl]

See ya'll there! Haven't been able to catch this float for quite awhile . . .looking forward to a great day on the water! If someone wants to car-pool, could meet at OOO. . . .

Sounds like a great group. Wish I could make it.

Deuce I'm almost scared to ask what was going on in the first pic. Is that hi-jinks or shenanigans? A little unsettling? But knowing the individual in question it's not surprising.

Paul, Liz, Beth, Bob, Jim and the rest y'all have fun.

[Jim Krueger]

We had a real good day today Chris! A wonderful August day with quite a crew. The river was just superb!
Many thanks to each of you for your company, and thank you Chicago Bob for shuttling us back at the end!
Off to bed shortly..

Best Regards
Jim

Liz, great trip. I hope we can do it again, soon. Ryan's set at Razorback Pizza was also a hit. Great start to the weekend. Rockport this afternoon, keep it coming. BOB

[Deuce]

Couldn't make it yesterday due to inescapable work obligations. There's talk of a repeat performance next Friday. If it materializes I hope to be a part.
