Quinebaug River Sunday 5/25.

Posted by paul on 5/22/2025, 9:53 am

Hopefully with these rains the Quinebaug trip will go on Sunday. Feeling comfortable in moving water is required. Drysuits/wetsuits or a change of clothing is required. Skirts are recommended. Although most rapids can be somewhat avoided, the boat will most likely create splashing. Park at the ball park at the rear of the waste water treatment plant. It will be a very fun, memorable trip. The river is mostly flat and quick water. The easy class II rapid can be portaged (with assistance) if you perfer. Please sign up to let Erik and I know that you're attending. SYOTR

Unfortunately, the rains made the river much higher than I anticipated and I feel it will be too much to lead the trip this Sunday. We are rescheduling for next Saturday the 31st, should levels be more favorable. Hope to see everyone then.
