Last minute paddle trip. I'm paddling the Willimantic River Sunday the 9th. Starting in Staford Springs Ct and ending up in Eagleville Ct. About 14 miles total. If you want to take out sooner there are other alternatives. Will be meeting at McDonalds in Willimatic Ct at 9:00 which is on route 32 south of route 6 by a mile or so, then heading north to the start, dropping off shuttle vehicles on the way to the put in. The put in will be at the first rest area on route 32 just south of Stafford Springs Ct.Should be there around 10ish. Bring lunch and stuff for a 4 hour (tour) paddle. This river is a "quick water" trip, may be a little scratchie, but will have some tight turns and a few play spots. It is a natural New England spring run river, no releases, but kinda close to home and has been fun in the past, one way or another. Any questions please ask. Thanks
Earl
