| Heading out |
There was a lot of activity
as we arrived below the huge Otter Brook Dam. NECKRA was running their
race, and a number of other groups had gathered to take advantage of the
release. The RICKA crew included me, Paul Pat and Dan.
After running the shuttle
and waiting for the fist group of racers to head out, we put-in at around 10:30.
The dam was releasing at 300 cfs – the usual release level. The river is a nice continuous class II with the most
difficult rapid being the Otter Ledge – a 3-foot ledge with the break on river
right. I went through first, bouncing off the wave at the bottom and into the
eddy to the left below the ledge.
Along Route 101 were more rocks to dodge and eddies to catch.
After a quick break for
lunch we did a second run, and we were still on the way home by 2:30. Great day!
