We’ve had some rain

So the river is muddy and up a bit (4.6).

With a mostly blue sky (some clouds) and mid 70s it was a really nice day to be out.

I didn’t make it across to the Virginia chute — too much current moving downstream.

But I did paddle up the back channel and saw a goose family complete with a few goslings waddling around.

And the Howard County swift water rescue team was out training. When I first got there, they were all swimming down from the Virginia chute — I would guess getting used to being in swift water.

They were just getting ready to head upstream when I took that photo. When they really starting going up the current, it was pretty impressive.

You may notice that they are front loading the rafts to keep the nose down a bit as the motors get going.
