The idea will be to have some safe fun! If I haven't paddled with you before I will contact you personally so we can find the best river 'fit' for the team. An opportunity perhaps to learn / consolidate skills and perhaps do some leadership shadowing if you wish. I'm happy for more experienced paddlers to come along, but please give Improver / Intermediates the opportunity to RSVP first. We will set up the customary WhatsApp group before the day.
1. Event co-ordinator & Leader - Pete Riley
2. Trip type: River grade 2 (3)
3. Level of ability: Competent grade 2 or better
4. Date: Mon Feb 21st
5. Venue & Meet & Lift Sharing Locations: TBC - depends on water & group (to be determined 0800hrs at the latest on the day of paddling).
6. Anything else:
I am happy to co-ordinate and lead the trip. However, as we will be a team, we are jointly responsible for each other’s safety on the water. WW kayaks only. Suitable for competent grade 3 paddlers or better. RSVP 6, unless another river leader joins trip. RSVP will be available from 11th Feb. Please read notes re river trips here: Whitewater Safety , which gives useful information on: Important Kit, River Signals, Whitewater Safety Skills Helmets
Ensure you carry the correct kit for the trip and be familiar with the accepted river signals as above.

CANCELLED STORM FRANKLIN WINS!
Sunday 1.30pm.. Looks like wind will reduce by mid-day Monday.
Still possible force 4-5 with gusts to 6. (Rain should have cleared)
I suggest a reduced distance paddle up the west side of the lake, hoping for some shelter. Then return along west shore.
Meet 11.00 for 11.30 on the water only if you fancy a breezy paddle. Understand if people don't fancy it. Please cancel if you wish.
I will rearrange the trip for Monday 14th March.
