Working the club table for part of Saturdays event, but could paddle somewhere on the Meramec Sunday if you would be interested. Any idea what section you would want to do or how many miles?
September 13, 2024 at 3:22 pm in reply to: 09/14/2024 Meramec Blue Spring to Meramec State Park #3657Dennis StrubbergModeratorHave enough for a shuttle so this paddle should be a go. Plan is to meet at Meramec State Park boat ramp by 9:30 to combine boats for shuttle up to the put-in. Would recommend some rain gear as a precaution. As I said post here or text me if interested in joining us.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorI have a bag of charcoal left over from one of our previous events that I can bring. I also have fireplace shovel and poker plus chimney starter, grill brush and tools I could bring and give Brian a hand.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorKathy, See you at Blue Springs 10:00 Sunday.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorCould be interested in Sunday.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorPlenty of room, Stacy
Dennis StrubbergModeratorLooks like I have enough for a shuttle so this paddle is a go. Since this is a 15 mile paddle on slow water I plan on meeting a little earlier than usual. I plan on being at the Eureka Walmart by 8:00 am to combine boats and finalize the shuttle. If anyone wants to meet us at River Round because it is easier for them, we should be there a little after 8:30 hopefully. If you plan on meeting us there please let me know so I can adapt the shuttle. As Kathy said this is 15 miles of relatively slow water, so don’t plan on getting done early, I’m out to enjoy the day, not to break a sweat. Be sure to bring lunch and water.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorWanted to clarify the plan is to camp at Pultite Monday night and on a gravel bar on the river Tuesday night, so you need to be able to get your gear and supplies in your boat. We will paddle Cedar Grove to Round Spring. I have reserved campsite 23 at Pultite for Monday night.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorStill planning on doing this trip. There is the possibility of some rain over the weekend so if you plan on joining me be sure not to forget some rain gear and dry clothes to change into when we get off the river. If you plan on coming down please let me know by noon Friday, I may not have cell service after then. Anyone planning on coming Saturday needs to be at Greer Crossing by 9:30 to make the shuttle.
Dennis StrubbergModeratorStacy, Greer Crossing is first come first serve with no reservations. Usually it is not too busy and sites are available. I will probably get down there early enough on Friday to get a site.
