Sounds good Jan! Do you know anything about this stream? Flat Water? Moving? Any rapids to speak of? Not that it matters. Just need to know what clothing-gear I need.

Phil, it's all pretty much flat water. There are a few spots where you'll have to walk the boat if the water isn't up, so anticipate wet feet. Nothing that will swamp you other than the odd unexpected cypress knee.

Carla, I was wondering if you are gonna go for the first swim of the year? I need to know whether or not to bring my camera :poke2:

Me Too Jack,

I had a wonderful outing today! Last year we had a cooler and foggy start, however today featured really nice blue skies. Thanks Debbie for posting this trip each year. And a thanks for all of you who came! When we returned to Pinnacle S.P. to pick up vehiches after the float, it was just filled to more than capacity.
I'd like to extend a 'special' thanks to the five or six, or seven guys in the back of my truck this afternoon for minding your manners when I pulled out in front of that State Trooper... It was a great day, and always, comic relief. A good new year to all!

Best Regards
Mr. Moose
