Please come out for a fall color run on French Creek. We will meet Sunday Oct. 10th at 11 am at the Shaw’s Landing Fish and Boat launch south of Meadville PA. This will be roughly an 8 mile paddle. We will unload and shuttle the cars to Carlton. We will paddle the first section from the launch to Cochranton, PA. This first section is much like a slow moving lake with deep water and some cottages. Just before Cochranton there is a fun little swift water that makes for a little fun before snack time. We will then paddle into little sugar creek, under the railroad bridge for a nice break and lunch. After some food and fellowship we will paddle the second half of our trip. This section of the creek changes a lot from the first half. Getting a little shallower with fewer cottages. We will take out under the bridge in Carlton. Hope to see you on the water.
