Early January Paddle?

Posted by Frank on 1/1/2025, 11:40 am

Jim and I are planning to paddle Friday Jan 3 before the really cold weather arrives. Specifics TBD. We're thinking an 11:30 or noon launch to take advantage of the warmest part of the day. Location TBD, I may scout a couple of places tomorrow to avoid an ice blocked put-in.
If anyone is interested and knows of an ice free location, we're open to suggestions.
If you plan to participate, let me know by replying here so we know to include you in any last minute communications.

Sounds good not too much ice now.

Thinking about the section of the West River North of the dam, have not done it his year (Actually, I've not paddled anywhere so far this year). Park on the road near 717 Mendon St. Wheels are strongly advised, its 100-200 yds to carry down to the river.
Arrive by 11:30 to launch at Noon. Bring a snack or lunch, not sure how long we'll be out.

Mendon ROAD, not street.
