Calling all paddlers….the Garry release dates have been, er, released!

From Wheres the Water website “The Garry is a good intermediate paddle or playrun (Grade 3+).  When releasing, the water usually starts rising 08:00 – 10:00 and starts dropping again in the evening 18:30 – 04:30.  Paddling between 10am and 8pm is pretty safe levels-wise.”

The dates are:

April: Sat 2nd, Thurs 7th, Sat 9th, Thur 14th, Fri 22nd and Sat 30th

May: Sat 7th, Sat 14th, Thur 19th, Sat 21st and Thur 26th

June: Thurs 2nd, Sat 4th, Thur 9th, Thurs 16th, Sat 18th, Thurs 23th and Sat 25th

July: Sat 2nd, Thurs 7th, Sat 9th, Thurs 14th, Thurs 21st, Sat  23rd, Thurs 28rd and Sat 30th

August: Thurs 4th, Thurs 11th, Thurs 18th and Thurs 25th

September: Thurs 1st, Thurs 8th, Sun 11th, Sat 17th and Sun 25th

October: Sat 1st, Thurs 6th, Thurs 13th, Thurs 20th and Thurs 27th

Don’t forget the Moriston (harder than the Garry) generally releases on a Tuesday most people paddle it on  Tuesday afternoons or evenings but it is also possible Wednesday Mornings.

I don’t know about you but all this sounds like a great excuse for a midweek get-away!
