Fall

October 1, 2011 update.
Reservoir Rd. bridge over Farmington below confluence is still closed for repairs.

VOLUME: Otis Reservoir dam repairs are dumping 2nd channel of water that we didn't find until at the riverbank put-in, noticing new waterfall opposite put-in adding approx. 50% volume over usual release. Nicely pads-out the usual run. But... after previous day's rains all high (New Boston over 6' and rising) only ~7' clearance in left tube under roadway, a bit more in right tube, neither encouraging boater engagement.

WOOD: ~90yds below 'Cleaver' (aka a Patrick Rogers' place) and ~30yds before Twin-Culverts is river-wide log, tightest on river-L, possible limbo on river-R at lower water, proven double-pinning capability. Scout river-R, short walk beyond to the culverts.

Easiest scout in conjunction with scouting Cleaver.
B safe.
