Wednesday Oct 4th paddle

Posted by Earl on 9/30/2023, 10:11 am

I am heading to the Quinebaug River in Brimfield, Ma. Wednesday Oct 4th. Meet at 10:00 am at the Quinebaug River Canoe trail launch site.
The launch site is on the south side of route 20 and is 1 mile west of route 148 in Sturbridge, and
600 feet past the Sturbrige/Brimfield town line on the left. I will be stopping for lunch, so bring something to eat.
Anyone interested?

Joanna and I are interested. Is that the same launch as back on May 6 this year?

No, this launch is past the one we used May 6th.
It is on the left, about 0.41 miles farther west on route 20. May 6th we launched into Long Pond, Wednesday we will be launching into East Brimfield Lake.

This is going to be a one way paddle. We will start in Holland and paddle with the flow north to Brimfield.
We are still going to meet at the Quinebaug River Canoe Trail launch site of of route 20 in Brimfield as noted before.
Looking forward to an early leaf peeping paddle!
The poison ivy is looking fantastically red!

9 mid-week paddlers, do I have to file a float plan?
And if so, where?
