Hudson River Rafting Trip - OPENING DAY - April 2, 2011
We had our first trip of the year on Saturday April 2, 2011. This is one big group that comes every year in April. This is the most snow I have seen on opening day in the 15 years I have been rafting here. We were the only trip on the river. A little rain, a little snow, a little sun.

Hudson River Rafting Trip 07-08-10
July 8th was a beautiful day on the river. Sunny and warm and the river continues to flow above normal. I rowed my cataraft with Mom as a passenger and we had 2 other rafts, guided by Bazil and Heather.

Hudson River Rafting Trip - 06-29-10 - Big Water
A couple times per year, you get days where the river is high and the air is warm. Heavy rain brought the river up from 3 feet to nearly 7 feet. The difference in volume is from 600cfs to 6000cfs. Not to be missed.

Video too!
Carnage in Mile Long Rapid just as this giant log lodges itself on Sneaker Sucker rock.
Brian and Eric get a closer look at the strainer.
Kettle Mountain Rapid is rowdy at high water.
The Boreas River was full too.
Bus Stop!
Cyclists from Bike & Build were excited about the high water.
Drove out to the Boreas River on Northwoods Club Road in Minerva at about 10pm. I wanted to check the gauge to possibly run the Boreas the following day. Saw a huge black bear running right down the middle of the road on the way out. The Boreas had already dropped to -0.5 on the painted gauge and it would be too low by tomorrow. Had to try.
