Mahoning River Lowellville to Covert Crossing
Fall Color Run Part II
Mahoning River Lowellville to Coverts Crossing ( McKinney Russell Boat Access Area ) Trip leader Mike Danko When-Sunday October 20th Where-Lowellville WaterFront Park W Water St, Lowellville, OH 44436 GPS 41.037384946092715, -80.53821058779188 Time 11 am Class I & II Rapids This section has two main rapids and a bunch of little riffles. Once we launch we will quickly come to a class I+ rapid called wing dam rapid; but it is an easy straightforward rapid. Once we hit the Island right after wing dam rapid we may want to portage a couple hundred feet around and get back into continue the paddle if it is really low water level The second is just past the 224 bridge, we call it Radio Rapid (ask Ed Ribgy why) Make sure to pack a lunch. Please post if you are planning on coming or text me 330-766-3129 Mike Danko

It's 9 miles, but it's all downstream....
See you there.

review
13 paddlers in 11 kayaks and 2 Canoes made there way down the Mahoning River from Lowellville to Covert Crossing. Water lever was low at 2.63ft USGS.
Had to do some portaging around the island right after wing dam rapid. It was great to see JP in his new Bell Canoe. It was really different to look over and see him in a red canoe instead of his green one. Talking to JP it's about 20lbs lighter; much easier to move around. Temperature's were in the up 60's with mostly sunny skies for a great day on the water. Big thanks goes to Bob Danko who showed up to help with the shuttle. Mike Danko
