Default Little Beaver Creek 4-29-12

Sunday April 29th we will meet at 10:30 am at Spurcevale.

We will do the section of the Little Beaver Creek from Sprucevale down to the Ohio River. Unlike last year this no fear of to much water, I hope to have enough to made this run a go.
Sprucevale is part of the Beaver Creek State park is also known as the Group Camp grounds or
the Primitive camping area.
I could not find a exact address, but it is on Spruceville Rd/ County Rd 428, The GPS location is 40.70586, -80.580351
It is very close to the Equestrian Camp. The address for this camp is
12816 Sprucevale Road
East Liverpool, OH 43920

Our take out is at a park on the corner of Calcutta Rd and Midland Rd in PA. Here is a nice ramp for easy take out, restrooms and a pavilion.

Please pack a lunch as we will stop near grimms bridge for lunch and relax for a few.
This trip is around 11 miles on the water. It has several small class 1 rapids that is a blast to paddle threw. There is one Class 2 rapid at fredricktowns. The easiest way around is to the right bank.

The lowest I am willing to paddle this section is 3ft, I would love to do it between 4 & 5 ft.

If any questions please email me at
