Reply To: Shermans Creek Covered Bridges Paddle – Sunday – May 7, 2017

[Lisa Baer]

Hurray for the rain! According to the predictor, we should have enough water to do the upper section of Shermans Creek. If the level is above 2.4, we will meet at the Enslow Covered Bridge on Adams Grove Rd which is 1.5 miles past Andersonburg on Route 274 heading west. The bridge is a mile down Adams Grove Rd. We’ll meet at 10:00 ready to shuttle at 10:30. We should be on the water at about 11:00 and the trip takes about 3.5 hours with a stop for lunch/leg stretch. The take out is near Paradise Stream Campground on Couchtown Rd at Adairs covered bridge. Please plan for the cool weather and have some extra clothes in case you get wet. There will be at least 1 portage around a low head dam which will probably be muddy. If the level is lower than 2.4, we will meet at the Dellville Bridge near Duncannon instead and I will post directions to that location on Saturday. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Adams+Grove+Rd,+Blain,+PA+17006/@40.3342468,-77.4984893,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x89c93e94138ddea1:0x3b97c15203820e85?hl=en-US
