SUMMARY:RMCC Niobrara River Memorial Day 2022 near Valentine\, NE
DESCRIPTION:This will be an ACA-sanctioned outing/event which requires EITHER ACA membership OR a $10/person insurance fee.  This is an easy\, kids-friendly class 1 river\, with our campground in the middle of the run.  Each day will be about 12 miles and about 4 hours. For more information about skill level and equipment information\, see RMCC Boating Requirements and Recommendations. \nThis beautiful stretch is one of America’s premier scenic heritage waterways; we’ll see many waterfalls\, beautiful hardwood forests\, and birds!  And the resident buffalo herd at the Fort Niobrara National Wildlife Refuge (https://www.fws.gov/refuge/fort_niobrara/ ) often has calves this time of year.  We run the river on Saturday and Sunday. Most will car camp at Smith Falls State Park\, Friday – Sunday nights; return to the Front Range after breakfast on Monday (about a 6-7 hour drive back to Denver) or continue to see the sights of Nebraska or head up to South Dakota. \nMemorial Day is shoulder season in the Sand Hills of Nebraska and we often have rain on parts of one or more days.  \nNiobrara River Trail description here .  \nDescription from Backpacker magazine:  http://www.backpacker.com/stories/paddle-nebraska-s-niobrara-river \nRiver gage at https://waterdata.usgs.gov/usa/nwis/uv?site_no=06461500.  We generally run it at between 1000 and 2000 cfs. \nSaturday\, we’ll meet at 10am (CDT) ready to shuttle from the Cornell Bridge put-in near Valentine\, down to the Smith Falls State Park campground and beach the canoes\, and then start from there again on Sunday.   If you are not camping\, but meeting us in the morning\, see the note\, below for directions. \nSaturday evening – optional potluck dinner at one of the convenient campsites.  There is a large group shelter generally available in case of rain. \nSunday\, we’ll meet near the boat ramp (where we took out on Saturday) at 10am (CDT) ready to shuttle from the campground to the take-out – probably at Sunny Brook Camp\, about a mile upstream of Rocky Ford.  The shuttle takes over an hour\, so non-drivers should plan to relax\, hike to Smith Falls\, and/or birdwatch at the campground while the drivers are driving. We will verify the 10am shuttle start on Saturday night. \nSunday evening: Informal group happy hour possible\, but no specific group activity planned.  Some of us will be checking out (i.e.\, scouting\, not running) the Norden chute and going to the The Nature Conservancy Niobrara Valley Preserve near there) (https://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/nebraska/placesweprotect/niobrara-valley-preserve.xml  \nCamping \nThe campground at Smith Falls State Park doesn’t open until Maqy 1 and there is no official group site.   We used to have the campground to ourselves but in recent years\, its gotten more crowded. The campground was reconfigured for 2021\, adding more sites and mixing the use between tents and RVs in all sites. You can make reservations now – here’s the link to the on-line camping reservations  https://nebraskastateparks.reserveamerica.com \nYou can also call the park for reservations ( (402) 376-1306) but your best bet is on-line. The camping cost is $15/day/site plus a day use fee. \nNote: Directions to Cornell Bridge from Valentine:  Take Nebraska 12 east about 4 miles to the Ft Niobrara Wildlife refuge turn-off. Turn right towards the river and then make the first right into the access parking lot. Be there by 11 am ready to shuttle and be sure to purchase your $1 wrist-band at the kiosk \nContact Bill Ashworth (washwort@gmail.com) to register for the trip if you didn’t sign up via the Planning and Permit survey

SUMMARY:Gunnison River - 3 days - May 22\, 23\, 24  Delta to Whitewater - 42 miles Class II.  ACA trip
DESCRIPTION:You need to provide your own river toilet. Temps should be fairly mild – expect highs in the 50s and lows about 30. Plan for two nights camping. And plan on a very early Sunday\, to get down river hopefully before the winds kick up. \nThere are 2 Class II rapids. I don’t recall how low I have ever run the Gunny\, but I recall one summer trip that we had to walk the boats thru the rock garden instead of doing the normal run for the first CII – we will scout the first rapid. The second CII can be avoided – it is at Dominguez canyon – a left channel (with a killer undercut rock) will avoid the CII\, which is right of the island. There is also a rock dam to negotiate about 6 miles down river – it is not a problem\, but must be run at far left. This run is easier in higher water than low. \nI am still working on the shuttle arrangements – hopefully we will be able to park vehicles at the Lazy S motel in Whitewater. . – still a work in process right now. \nThis is an ACA trip – if you are an ACA member\, e-mail me your membership number – if you have an Online Waiver\, you can send me a copy of that. Except for people with a valid online waiver\, you will need to fill out an ACA waiver for the trip (BRING YOUR # with you – you need it for the waiver form). If you are not an ACA member\, then you need to pay the $10 per person insurance fee. Since this is an ACA trip\, and since it is Class II – you must have a helmet for the CII rapids (NO Bike Helmets).  \nNo dogs or little kids – guests may be allowed\, if its cleared with me first. Day 1 is 28 miles\, so no slow boats  \nSign up with trip coordinator\, Mat Bozek\, matbozekx@gmail.com to register for this trip or ask questions.         No sign ups before March 1st! \nCAUTION – If I can obtain a permit for Loma to Westwater for May 24th\, this trip will not end at Whitewater – This will add 13 more miles and one more night to the trip so it would be 3 nights/4days and there will be one mandatory portage around the Redlands Dam – 3/10 mile portage\, and there is one more CII rock garden rapid upstream from the dam – this addition is dependent on having sufficient water and on obtaining the permit for camping in Ruby/Horsethief – dates also depend on obtaining permits for Gunnison if they are implemented.

SUMMARY:Yampa\, South Beach to Duffy Mountain May 14\, 2022 - May 15\, 2022.  Trip full. Waitlist available.
DESCRIPTION:The South Beach to Duffy Mountain stretch of the Yampa is an easy flatwater/Class I trip.  In early May we have had good flow and not many mosquitoes\, and not much (if any) competition for campsites. \nThis is a good trip to break out your gear from storage and get ready for the canoe season.  It is also an easy trip for people new to canoeing and canoe camping.  Pack a warm sleeping bag because the mornings will be frosty. As usual\, be ready for all weather conditions from pouring rain\, to snow\, and to sunshine.  Also\, you can expect strong afternoon headwinds. \nThe first day’s float will be through private ranch land where the eagle nests will be seen.  Many bald eagle nests are on this stretch and  some may have visible babies in them.  The second day we will be paddling through BLM land\, which is more scenic but without the eagle nests and without the railroad.  Flocks of sheep with big scary sheep dogs may be seen\, but we will not be camping with them. \nTo register for this event\, email Trip Coordinator Dan Custer at custer.dan@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Upper Missouri National Wild & Scenic River\, Montana.   May 12th- May 19th\, 2022.  (8 Days\, 150 river miles) Class 1\,  ACA trip
DESCRIPTION:It is 777 miles from\, Denver to the put in at Fort Benton \nWe will be camping 7 nights on the river. This is the famous “White Cliffs” / “Missouri Breaks”  Section of the Missouri RIver.  \nNo little kids\, no dogs\, NO WHINING allowed. \nMandatory equipment will include an alarm clock for each tent. Yes\, an alarm clock! for the mandatory 8 AM start each day. This section is known for high upriver winds\, and we will be on the water each day by 8 AM so as to get to camp by early afternoon to avoid the worst of the winds. Aside from high winds\, other hazards include rattlesnakes\, ice cold water\, falling cottonwood branches\, soft crumbly rock (on hikes) and all the usual other hazards of river travel\, as well as some (not so minor) potential for spring blizzards. \nWe will be camping in a mix of “primitive” and “developed” boat camps (and potentially just bushwhack camping if necessary). River toilets are mandatory\, except that WAG Bags are an acceptable alternative if you put them into a waterproof container.  Everyone will be responsible for their own Poo – No S***!. I’m not hauling yours. The river water is not fit for drinking\, even if filtering\, as it contains agricultural runoff of fertilizers and pesticides (and it’s not known as The Big Muddy for nothing). Everyone is required to carry enough drinking water for the full trip. I expect to carry 7 gallons myself – ½ gal for first and last days and a full gallon for each day between. Recommended is a gallon per person per day. At 8 lbs/gallon\, that 56 pounds to start with (per person\, at least).  \n I hope to get to camp early enough to allow time for some hiking in the afternoons. I am planning on 6 camps and 6 travel days\, with one day in reserve to use as a layover\, or makeup day if needed. May is the highest flow rate\, so I anticipate a fair current – expect to paddle at least one or two 30 mile days\, which means you need to be in good enough physical condition to paddle (not float) for 6 to 8 hours each day. If the current is flowing at 2mph and we paddle at 3 mph\, that’s 5mph and 6 hours of actual paddling time to cover 30 miles. Could be more or less depending on conditions. \nThe shuttle service in Ft. Benton has a 10 passenger van . We may opt to do our own shuttle if we arrive at Ft Benton soon enough We may need to use two shuttle services\, or maybe pre-shuttle some of our vehicles. Depending\, shuttle service will cost a minimum of $40 per driver – could be double that or more) The shuttle is 150 miles one-way\, which is why I prefer to use a shuttle service. \nFEES: aside from the shuttle fees\, you should bring enough cash to pay for camping at the pay campgrounds if we are forced to use them (varies from $5 to $12 per site) \nBLM River Trip Fees = $4 per person per day = $28 per person – we will pay at the Coal Banks Landing ranger station.. \n\n\n\n\nWhile this can be characterized as a beginner level trip\, a beginner would have to have moving water experience and be physically and mentally able to paddle the 6 to 8 hours per day\, day after day. The river is Class 1 – there are about 15 named rapids which are mainly at islands\, and would seem to be just large wave trains. In higher water\, most all of those rapids get washed out. No slow boats for this trip – you will need to be able keep up a moderate pace all day\,especially if we are fighting headwinds. \nNo sign ups before March 1st \nSign up with Trip Coordinator: Mat Bozek\, matbozekx@gmail.com to register for this trip or ask questions.

He has been paddling and teaching canoeing for over 30 years. He has worked with all levels of paddlers from recreational to racers\, adults and children.

SUMMARY:White River – Rangely CO. April 23\, 2022 (Sat.) - April 25\, 2022 (Mon.) CANCELLED -- LOW WATER
DESCRIPTION:White River from Trujillo Wash to the Enron Gas Wells take out – 65 miles\, Class II \nThis is a three day\, two night trip . Plan on two nights camping on the river – that allows a full day for the long drive bacon Mon. to avoid weekend traffic – it is 285 miles from Denver to Rangely and another 30 or more miles to and from the takeout. Shuttle takes a good 2 to 3 hours round trip. Put in at Trujillo Wash and take out at Enron Gas Wells. \nThis is an ACA trip – River Rating is Class I/II (helmet required). There is one Class II rapid in Cowboy Canyon that can “generally” be avoided. Intermediate paddling skill is required – this is NOT a beginner level trip. You must be able to maneuver your canoe around many strainers and through tight corners with very strong eddy lines\, and be able to eddy out quickly. \nBLM’s Floating the White River brochure describes this portion of the River “for 100 miles between Rangely\, Colorado\, and the river’s confluence with the Green River\, the White River cuts a rugged\, scenic trough into the high desert plains of the Uintah Basin. This is a place to paddle\, watch wildlife\, and occasionally leave the river for an unforgettable hike.” \nThis is an ACA trip. Non ACA members will need to pay $10 to cover insurance. No dogs\, no little kids\, no “guests”.  If you are planning on paddling with a non-RMCC member\, clear it with me first. \nNo sign ups before March 1st \nTrip Coordinator: Mat Bozek\, matbozekx@gmail.com to register for this trip or ask questions.

SUMMARY:Revised: 17th Almost Annual Joint Club Paddle - South Platte River\, Evans to Kersey or Kuner
DESCRIPTION:If you are considering joining us\, PLEASE NOTE:  March 26th weather is looking good\, but this is no longer a family-friendly\, first-timer’s run — you have to be able to control your boat to avoid multiple gravel bars and strainers and to portage two dangerous dams.  Please see the description in the revised flier — especially the description of dam portages — and contact Kathryn if you want to discuss it. \nThe Rocky Mountain Canoe Club\, Poudre Paddlers\, Flatwater Frogs\, Rocky Mountain Sea Kayak Club\, High Country River Rafters\, and Colorado Whitewater will be back on the South Platte River to celebrate the 2022 padding season.  Our traditional put-in at Riverside Park in Evans\, Colorado reopened following restoration of severe damage from the September 2013 floods and our main takeout at Kersey has a new bridge. \nJoin us on March 26 (weather permitting) on a Class I+ paddle from Evans to Kersey Bridge or Kuner.  \nRegistration is not required (but will get you an email if we have to punt to our April 2 “snow date”) and non-members are welcome to join.  Because we have other clubs involved\, this is only a partial (hybrid) ACA-sanctioned trip (no ACA membership/$10 event fee required)\, but all participants must sign liability waivers. \nFor more detail\, see the Revised Joint Club Paddle Flier and then\, if desired\, contact Kathryn Mutz

SUMMARY:South Platte River: Brighton to Fort Lupton.  March 19th\, 2022 (Sat.)  9:00 am - to 2:00pm
DESCRIPTION:The South Platte River from Brighton to Fort Lupton is generally a beginner friendly 9 mile trip that is lined with cottonwoods hosting numerous birds and other wildlife… a nice way to begin the paddling season. There is one mandatory portage at a dam and one boat chute drop early on that will most likely be portaged depending on conditions. Meet at Veterans Park in Brighton and be ready to begin the car shuttle no later than 9 am. Take out is at Fort Lupton’s ballfields park. Bring Rain Gear\, canoe floatation\, painters\, spare paddle and of course a PFD. Also bring a set of dry clothes in a water proof bag and a lunch or snack.  Don’t pack too heavy\, the two portages are not all that easy\, and you need to cross a boulder field and fence. \nFor a detailed description of the river and parking areas go to: http://boc123.com/Kayak/RiverGuide/South_Platte_Brighton_City.cfm \nThis will be an ACA trip – e-mail your aca # to mat. If not an ACA member\, bring $10 per person for the insurance fee. Potentially the trip may be run on Sunday depending on the weather. \nWarning! – there are now multiple strainers (trees) in the river with a lot of tight turns – you need to have good boat handling skills to avoid them. \nNo sign ups before March 1st \nSign up with Trip Coordinator: Mat Bozek\, matbozekx@gmail.com to register for this trip or ask questions.

SUMMARY:Chatfield Reservoir
DESCRIPTION:Don’t put your boat away quite yet. This is a beautiful time of year to paddle Chatfield Reservoir. The cottonwood trees are likely to be displaying their golden fall colors creating a stunning backdrop for the large number of birds (pelicans\, cormorants\, Canadian Geese\, king fishers\, etc.) that make the reservoir their home. We will be paddling in the no-wake zone that requires power boats to slow down enough to not create a large wake\, plus there are considerably fewer boats on the water in the fall offering a much quieter\, more peaceful paddling experience. Please be at the designated meeting place by 9:00 a.m. and be ready to paddle by 9:30. \nYou will need to pay a daily State Park pass of $10 per vehicle unless you have an annual State Parks sticker. This is an ACA sanctioned trip so a $10 liability insurance fee will be collected for all non-ACA members. If you are a ACA member please provide your ACA membership number to the Trip Coordinator before the trip. \nTrip Coordinators are Kit and Henry Williams. Email Kit at kitrynwilliams@gmail.com to register.

SUMMARY:Green River from Flaming Gorge Dam thru Swallow Canyon
DESCRIPTION:(This trip is currently full and a waiting list has been started) \n  \nRiver Classification: \nSection A:  Class II – II+ pool drop plus the II+ Mother-in-law Rapid; COLD water \nSection B:  Red Creek Rapid = Class III (portage/line on river left) \nSection C:  Class I+ \nCampgrounds: \nFriday night we have a very large (75 people max) site #3 at the Arch Dam Group Campground just 1 mile from the dam.  Saturday we will have a pair of river camps to be reserved 6 months ahead.  Sunday we will have the group site at the Indian Crossing Campground\, a quarter mile from Jarvie Ranch Historical Site.  And if part of the group wants to go further and try their luck with a couple of non-reservable sites 5 miles downstream\, we may split into 2 groups. \nMax 30 people: \nOn river camping limits us to 30 people.  We have that many\, so another Wait List might be started. \nCosts and Equipment: \nThe 3 nights of reserved camps (payable at the 1st camp) will cost about $8-10 per person if we maintain the full trip size and go up a bit if we lose people.  Car shuttle will be $17-25 per car\, depending on the number of vehicles.  Whitewater skills\, cold water clothing (in case of flip)\, helmets\, throw rope and painters are required.  This is an ACA trip and you will need to pay $10 if you are not an ACA member. \n  \nContact Karen Amundson at canoekarena@msn.com for a more detailed information sheet or to be added to the Wait List.

SUMMARY:Boundary Waters Canoe Area\, Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:These dates are tentative and may change depending on the needs of the group.  \nThe Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Minnesota\, and Quetico Provincial Park in Canada\, hug their respective sides of the border\, but combine to offer 3 million acres of road-less wilderness containing more than 3000 lakes\, protected from motorboats\, lodges\, and the encroachment of civilization. This is a land scraped to ancient bedrock by glaciers\, the resulting depressions becoming crystal clear lakes\, containing Lake Trout\, Walleye\, Pike\, & Bass\, surrounded by boreal forests and bogs. \nGo light. Leave the tables\, chairs and coolers at home. Go with freeze-dried food (it’s gotten a lot better; Mountain House is a good brand)\, one change of clothes is plenty\, and rent a Kevlar canoe if you don’t have one. If you can’t do a portage in a single (or double) trip\, you probably have too much stuff \nOur group size can be no more than Nine (9) people and four (4) canoes (no kayaks permitted on this trip). \nRequired for all overnight visitors Per person\, per trip recreation fee: Adult $16.00  Reservation people  Fee $6.00 reservation fee per permit\, on-refundable. \nBWCAW User Fee Discounts Interagency Senior/Access Pass Holders $8.00 person\, per trip. \nBecause of the distance we all have to travel I want to be flexible on the trip/trips length . If half the group wants to have a week trip and the other half wants a two-week trip\, then I would suggest two one-week trips with a day layover in between the two trips. The coast would be $16 or $8 per trip plus $6.00 reservation fee per permit. This can be decided by the people who sign up. \nWe would canoe to a campsite and use it as a base camp. Set up camp and stay multi nights paddling out from the campsite each day until all surrounding area have been paddled then move and set up another basecamp paddling out from the campsite each day until all surrounding area have been paddled then move and set up another basecamp . \nPlease contact Dick Wilkins at dw5geo@hotmail.com to register or if you want further information. \nThis is an RMCC/ACA sponsored event so an additional $10 insurance fee will be required for those who are not members of ACA. If you are a member\, please send Dick your ACA membership number before the trip.
