Hudson River Overnight Trip 04-07-10

April started out very warm this year which gave us some great early season river days. We took advantage of the weather and did an overnight trip on the Hudson from Newcomb to North River. We rafted 24 miles in two days and camped at the Hudson-Cedar confluence.

It was quite foggy the first day, luckily no big rapids either.

Moose River Rafting Trip - 04/03/10

75 degree and sunny on the Moose River is a fantastic start to the 2010 rafting season. The river level was perfect at 5.79 feet. We had three 14' 6 person rafts and a kayaker on our trip. A good time was had by all.













Eric runs a nice clean line at Mixmaster.











































Chris runs the holes.
