It’s been raining like crazy and all the whitewater rivers are up, but with COVID-19, very few people are paddling. That is good. For me the problem is the shuttle. So yesterday’s trip on the Big River is probably the model for the foreseeable future – easy trip, small group, no shuttle.
We put in at Zeke's Bridge (Harkney Hill Road, Coventry) and paddled upstream through Reynolds Pond, under Route 95 and Route 3, and up to the lunch spot. The river was up (unfortunately, the gage is offline) and the current made paddling the twists and turns a little more interesting. We had a strong headwind paddling back up Reynolds Pond to the take out. Good time, but I would have rather been paddling Lower Otter Brook, which was the original plan for this weekend.
