Flatwater Paddle - Saturday, July 11th Conodoquinet Creek, PA 

    Trip Coordinator: Sheri Pflugh; RSVP at spflugh@verizon.net

    Conodoquinet Creek   This river looks great.  It is little wider than the Brandywine for the most part and situated in a mix of forest, agriculture, and residential.  I was able to see a few ripples and chutes.  The water looks to be moving medium fast.  Info suggests 1.7 ft is needed at the http://waterdata.usgs.gov/pa/nwis/uv?01570000 gauge. It was reading an average 2.0 on Sunday and there was plenty of water. 

    Meeting Place - Scott Farm Appalachian Trail Work Center, 300 Bernhiesel Bridge Rd, Carlisle PA 17015     (Note: The street is spelled Bernheisel at the Center, but Bernhiesel on my maps – use what ever works for your mapping.)

    Meeting Time: 10:30am

Driving Time:

    2 to 2 ½ hrs from anywhere in DE
