| Dependent on storm that could produce adequate flow. If that does not materialize we may be paddling something else in the area as heavy rain will happen. This is a tropical storm which is more widespread than a thunderstorm. If interested please contact coordinator as actual call on what and when to paddle will probably not be able to be made until Saturday.
May move to a different nearby river if water levels dictate. |

| This is a joint trip with AMC and we will follow their COVID-19 protocols. The trip will start just after the Carman's River goes under Sunrise Highway, eventually flowing towards the Great South Bay. Most of our trip will go through the Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge, home to over hundreds of species of plants, fish, birds and mammals. This is an exploratory trip as the leader has not paddled this part of the river before. We will paddle at least to Indian Landing, which should take 4 hours round trip. See www.fws.gov/uploadedFiles/WRT%20Lower%20Carmans%20River%20Guide.pdf There is a $10 parking fee per car. |
