Sunset Race Series

Low water tonight means fresh cold springs right by the boat ramp!

Weather looks great for paddling on Thursday! Trending low water, so bring the right boat, probably can't go all the way without a portage.

Still gonna be great!

Amazing paddle last night. We had a surprise when we got to the Meramec Marina. The river was so low, you couldn't paddle in our out. They were essentially landlocked. We had to portage through deep mud to get there. With lots of laughter and teamwork, we got it done. Come join us for adventure next month,

Fun crew for the sunset race tonight with lots of laughter.

Looking back at this warm and lovely September Sunset Race, this month's paddle (this coming Thursday 1/11) is going to be brutal weather. We'll still be out there loving the river! So far 4 people have committed to be there. Will you be number 5?

Lovely paddle tonight. Starting to get cold when it's dark.

Last night's Sunset Race was warmer than I expected for February. We had a lovely up and back on a quiet river.
