The Vermont Paddlers Club

It was pouring the night before....  Inches and Inches came down.  The spring and ditch across from my house was flowing at a high level.  It was 75 degrees.  Go time....  sent a note to the boss that I'd be in late.

On my way to the put in to meet Justin - a tree had fallen across the road.  You have to be kidding me!  I pulled out my boat saw and cut a few branches to get through.  5 minutes late and we are off to set shuttle.  It didn't look all that high at the take out - but up at the put in it was thumping - he had actually caught the bubble right at the put in!!!!  BooYa!

Everything was super fluid and clean.  Hmmm - so this is what the NBW is like at a good level!

I can't describe all the rapids and how SWEET they are anymore than I've done the last dozen or so years I've been entering TRs on the NBW.  But at this level, with this temperature and early morning with a good boating partner.  Man this run is what VT creeking is about.

Third time is a charm - we hit it on the money, had clean runs and to cap it off - Justin is off to MO with his family for a new start in a new state.  He got 3 runs on the NBW this spring.  Come back and see us some time man.
