Let‘s get in paddling gear in preparation to the 60th Anniversary celebration. Longtime friend and way-back-when club member John Diehl is planning to attend and I am showing him the beautiful cypress swamp at Champion Lake. Come and join us for a leisurely approximately 6 mile paddle.

My first trip to this area was with longtime friend John Diehl in the early 1980s. Come join us for a return to this beautiful area to re-introduce John and add to the areas we have explored since then. Up to a 10 mile paddle, may be fairly vigorous but within reason. Warm up to the flotilla paddle tomorrow at the 60th Anniversary celebration.

Come paddle, eat, and socialize with fellow paddling friends.

A cleanup on and around the Bayou

Always a hoot, and full of good friends and good food, and wild paddling stories.

A 16.5 mile rub on the Brazos mainstem, in the Bryan/College Station area. Very interesting stretch of the river, with the petrified log jam and other interesting fossil material. Some fast water, but no real hazards. Difficult put in, reallt difficult take out,

This trip was timed to take advantage of anticipated autumn color and autumn rains. It looks like the rains are not happening, so I have shifted plans from the Buffalo River to the more reliable spring-fed Current River. We will paddle from Cedargrove access to Two Rivers - about 43.5 miles.

Weather is the main factor at this time of year. It could be really cold or pretty mild. It could rain the whole week, or not at all, or anything in between. At this moment (Oct 13) we are seeing lows in the high 30s and highs in the mid 70s, but forecast accuracy is pretty low, so be a Boy Scout.

We will meet at the Dairy Shack,18603 Main St, in Eminence, MO at 4:00 PM on Sunday, Oct 20. This adds about an hour and a half to the original Buffalo River travel time, so please plan your departure time accordingly.

Come out and see the fall colors.

A relatively short (20.50 miles) paddle on the Brazos. This stretch is free of any major hazards and a generally easy paddle. This section does have the location where the steamboat Yellowstone met Sam Houston‘s army and ferried them across the river near Bernardo Plantation. It is also the local where the Twin Sisters canons were delivered to the Texian army prior to the Battle of San Jacinto. It is reputed to still contain the very rock Sam used to stand on and pee in the river after his morning coffee. Could just be a rumor. We will meet at the downstream end of the segment, on the east bank of the river at FM 529 at 0800 and then shuttle back up to the put in on the west bank of the river at SH 159. If you would like to attend this paddle, please let me know!
