Default Easy paddling

Clarion is a very easy and scenic paddle. At current river levels should be smooth sailing with just a few short runs.

Hey Jim, add some mushrooms, a pat of butter, a couple shakes of seasoned salt and a little red pepper flakes to mine. And I don't care what kind of beer you bring, I'll drink anything. I'll bring the bread.
The rest of you people get your orders in early.
Thanks Pal !!!
