(CCKA organised whitewater trip)
led by John Wilkinson, but Robin Ruddock, Owen McCauley and John Vance were all there too.
put in at Carrick Rocks - see map
Steep path and narrow bridge; carrying the boat down much better to carry an empty boat on your head and go back for the kit than carry a laden boat.
water was low
paddled down to just before Dog Leap (Roe Valley Country Park main carpark)
a couple of weirs we ran, a couple we portaged. All were possible to run for more experienced paddlers.
Ate lunch at the carpark and portaged the Dog Leap.
then paddled on down to O'Cahan's rock
