It was nice to have the temperatures warm up a bit yesterday, so I decided to take my boat down to the Manville Dam. I thought it would be a good level (
2.2 feet, 525 cfs on the Woonsocket gage), but the river was a little higher than I expected, and there were some ice shelves that I didn’t like – especially on the bridge pier in the middle of the river. I decided to carry my boat up to the dam for a quick run down, and then played in the small drop above the put-in for a while. I only paddled for an hour, but it was enough.
