It was a beautiful day on Little Beaver Creek with mostly sunny skies. We had twenty paddlers in seventeen kayaks and two canoes. The section we did from Sprucevale to RT 68 bridge has nice sections of rapids that were fun at the water level the creek was at that day. The gauge at Grimms bridge reported a height of 5.7ft and a flow of 1600cfs. The trip took around 5 hours with a few stops along the way. We had a few people in the water at times and a tree-assisted roll by one paddler where we had to rescue his pinned kayak. This is a scenic trip and is one of my favorite local trips. I recommend this to anyone who hasn't done this section yet.
