Tomorrow, Friday, I'm paddling with the Blackstone Collaborative group on the second segment of their four day Blackstone Expedition. We're putting in at Plummer's Landing (Church St Northbridge MA) and taking out at the Blackstone Gorge (County St, Blackstone MA. Launch time targeting 8:30AM (I will confirm/update here this evening).
It's about 11 miles via roads, a bit longer via the river so this will be an "all day" trip, bring appropriate food and water. I believe the only dam to portage will be at Rice City and we will run the Millville Rapids. Some from the group have recently done the section from Plummers to Riverbend and it is reported to be clear.
If you're up to it, join us tomorrow. Contact me if you want to arrange a shuttle.
