    Looking for river trips in OH/PA vicinity

    Hello, Are you watching the clarion river gauge? It is currently running 6.64 with a little more rain to come. The State Park shuts down their launches at any thing over 6’. I think your planned put in would be above their launches but your take out might not be. Might pay to have a back up...

    Hello, you will have a blast. It is such a fun river. I paddle composite now exclusively but you can get some scrapes. The bottom is pretty much all rock so good and hard. I don’t have any experience polling so can’t say how good it is either way. Have fun.
