Self support trip on the Grey. Grade 3 white water skills recommended.
Carry your camping gear in your boat!
Starting from Palmers near Springs junction, we'll paddle the Upper Grey on Saturday before camping on the middle flats. Saturday's paddling is mostly grade 2 plus with 1 grade 3 rapid. Sunday a warm up with some flat water before entering gorges with up to grade 3 rapids, then a float through the serene Gentle Annie gorge. Ideally the flow is around 80 cumecs on the Waipuna gauge and falling.
Possible Maruia trip on the Friday. Contact Simon to register interest.
