Grip,

One thing I enjoy about paddling is that, even after 30 years, I still
learn something new almost every trip.

That trip I learned that eyeballing the river level before moving the
take out vehicle 13 miles downriver instead of just checking the
on-line gauge in the morning is a very, very good practice.

I also learned that 1.40 is just about canoe zero for the
Masemore-to-Blue Mount section.
