Goose Creek Reservoir - Ascent to Francis Dam with Loudoun Kayakers

A joint flatwater paddle with the Loudon Kayakers &amp; Social Meet-Up.<br />We&#39;ll paddle upstream to the two-foot rubble dam at the former Francis Lock and if possible forge on to Evergreen Mills. /// Please consult the &quot;Trip Coordinator Stream Sheet&quot; on the CCA Website, under &quot;Trips &amp; Events Calendar &gt;&gt; Trip Coordinator Sheets.&quot; /// Limited to 10 people because of the narrowness of the put-in at Sycolin Road.<br /><br /> WE WILL OFFER THIS TRIP AGAIN THIS FALL OR NEXT SPRING, so we recommend that if folks are flexible they come on those trips instead. Thanks. <br /><br />//// PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOU&#39;RE COMING at alfcooley@gmail.com Looking Forward to an interesting day - if all cooperate. We suggest Rec Kayaks over Sea Kayaks, for ease of putting in and surmounting the Francis Dam. PDFs, please.
