River trip, up to grade 3(4-) trip if there's any water.
(4-) indicates short section(s) of rapid that may reach grade 4- depending on the water level. On this trip, inspection and possible portage of any (4-) sections will be encouraged, but you should be confident on grade 3 overall.
1. Event co-ordinator: Neil Gill
2. Trip Leader leader: Neil Gill
3. Trip type: white water kayaks. River section will be decided on the day after assessing the rainfall.
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.
Please ensure you carry the correct kit for the trip you are attending - decent helmet a must (https://lakelandcanoeclub.wordpress.com/whitewater-safety-helmets/) and drysuit recommended!
Please also familiarise yourself with these river signals https://lakelandcanoeclub.wordpress.com/whitewater-safety-river-signals/ although we will go through these on the day.
Whatsapp group will be set up before hand, please check around 8am on Saturday morning for river decision.
RSVP at least 1 day before the event
