Thursday Feb 2 Paddle Details

Posted by Frank on 1/31/2023, 3:56 pm

For Thursday, Earl has suggested a shuttle trip downstream on the Quinabog from Fabyan to West Thompson lake, paddling with the current is almost always fine with me. Some quickwater at the start but I think we've all done this one before.

We'll meet at 10:45 at the take out on the lake to drop a couple cars. We'll transfer those two boats to the other vehicles and head up to the put in on Fabyan Rd.

Both WAZE and Google maps will get you to the place where we will meet near the disc golf on Campground Drive in North Grosvenor Dale CT. if you enter West Thompson Disc Golf.

It is forecast to be a very pleasant February day, mostly sunny but in the low to mid 30s so cold weather gear is mandatory.

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully the ice on the lake doesn't get too thick. See you tomorrow!

If ice on the lake is an issue I belive we have an option to move upriver to a take out before the lake. See you there, should be a great day on the water!

Bring wheels just in case if the lake has thick ice.
You may want them for the take out before the lake.
