Fall Foliage Paddle

All

I am officially cancelling this trip due to safety concerns. I've been on the Mississippi River in high winds and if was not fun. Downright scary. Hope to reschedule. Sorry for the inconvenience all.

By the way, I sent everyone an email Wednesday night using the email address in your profile. So far, the people I have spoken to did not receive it. I am going to call everyone individually to advise them of the cancellation but you might want to verify that your email address is correct in your profile.

Excessive winds up to 40 mph gusts remain in forecast. I dropping out. For those that go, secure your boats tight on your roofs. Kathy

If the forecast doesn’t improve I will pass. Everyone should have good deep water rescue skills and be able to tow if necessary . It will be a Southerly headwind. Kathy

While the temperature and such looks good for Saturday, it is going to be windy. Really windy as in sustained 22mph and possibly gusts up to 38-40 mph. We'll be hugging the shore line but it could still be rough

Our put-in and take out looks fine. The put in could be muddy right at the water's edge but the take out will be a boat ramp.

I will be calling everyone who has signed up on Friday to discuss

Hi All

Sorry for the lack of details and short notice. I am going to be checking out the putin and take out options on Thursday the 15th. I am trying to plan for the best experience given the water levels.

You will have updates by Thursday evening at the latest
