SUMMARY:Eleven Point River Overnight (free-$11.50)
DESCRIPTION:We will be paddling from Greer Crossing on Saturday to Riverton Access on Sunday with camping on the river Saturday night. \nThe Eleven Point River is not for everybody\, but for those wanting a semi-wilderness trip down a gorgeous river offering easy whitewater and scenic beauty that is hard to match\, this is the place to paddle in Missouri. It is fed by some of the loveliest wild springs in the state. Those of the upper river are relatively small\, but Greer Spring\, which is the second largest within the state\, is surrounded by walking fern and other vegetation in its natural state. The main outlet boils from its basin and plunges down the hillside to the Eleven Point River 1.25 miles away. The average flow is more than 300 cubic feet per second\, and the drop is 62 feet. However\, a raft run down the spring several years ago resulted in a drowning. The spring is on private property and has been graciously left open to the public\, but permission to float the spring will not be given. Greer Spring nearly doubles the size of the river and makes the Eleven Point below Hwy. 19 quite floatable even in dry years. An 11-mile section of the river below Greer Spring is managed by MDC for rainbow trout. An area known as The Irish Wilderness\, through which the river runs\, is well named and indicates the character of this cool\, fast river. The Eleven Point is a National Scenic River. \nYou can see a description of this river in Terrain Magazine:  Mysteries of the Eleven Point River in the Missouri Ozarks – Terrain Magazine \nMeeting Location: Greer Crossing Recreation Area boat ramp at 8:00 am Saturday. \nCamping options: \nWe will be camping on the river Saturday night with optional camping at Greer Crossing (first come basis) on Friday night. \nWater classification: Class I with some Class II \nClass I: Fast-moving water with riffles and small waves; few obstructions\, all obvious and easily missed with little training; risk to swimmers is slight; self-rescue is easy. \nClass II: Straightforward rapids with wide\, clear channels which are evident without scouting; occasional maneuvering may be required\, but rocks and medium-sized waves are easily missed by trained paddlers; swimmers are seldom injured and group assistance\, while helpful\, is seldom needed. \nPossible hazards or difficult sections of water paddled (other hazards may also be encountered on the trip): tight turns\, strainers\, root wads\, obstacles to navigate around. \nSkill level required: \nConfident Beginner (paddler who has a strong forward stroke\, knows other basic strokes\, has stamina and skill to finish a 10-12 mile river trip\, and can maneuver their boat through and around obstacles in moving water.) \nType of boat required: Boats big enough to carry gear for camping \nHow to dress: Dress for immersion.  A dry suit or wetsuit is needed or change of clothing in a drybag.

SUMMARY:Bourbeuse River Paddle and Picnic
DESCRIPTION:This is a 1-day paddle from Uhlemeyer access to Robertsville State Park boat ramp. We will have a potluck afterward at Robertsville State Park. \n“Although the Gasconade has a reputation for being crooked\, the meandering of the Bourbeuse is more extreme. It winds for nearly 100 miles with an airplane distance of only 27 miles. This is a relatively small\, slow river which is not as clear as many of the streams farther south.” (A Paddler’s Guide to Missouri) It is one of 2 major Tributaries of the Meramec River\, the other being Big River. “It provides some rather good bass fishing\, has many picturesque features and is surprisingly little cut up by roads crossing it. It is seldom floatable in summer above Bartel Bend (Hwy. H) and becomes rather “civilized” beyond the first Union Bridge.”  (Float Missouri) Anyone can paddle the Bourbeuse. \nMeeting Location: Uhlemeyer Access (Exit I-44 at Route 0 and go south to the access\, which is immediately to the west.) \nWater classification: \nClass I: Fast-moving water with riffles and small waves; few obstructions\, all obvious and easily missed with little training; risk to swimmers is slight; self-rescue is easy. \nSkill level required: \n New Beginner (paddler with little to no skills.) \nType of boat required: any \nHow to dress: Dress for immersion. A dry suit or wetsuit is needed or change of clothing in a drybag. No cotton. \nParticipants must bring:  (Take this off the Request form for STL Canoe & Kayak Club trip/event.)  \n\nA complete change of clothes in a dry bag.
