As we are not planning to paddle at Pugney’s again this coming Saturday we are going to have a paddle on a local river weather permitting.
We are looking to paddle at Sowerby Bridge meeting at the industrial estate car park here: Walton Street, Halifax HX6 1AW.
Under normal water level this stretch of river is very safe and great for beginners and playboaters alike. With several small drops with a large pool at the bottom of each. Once at the end we simply get out and walk back up to the start.
Below you can see a few photo’s from our last session there a few weeks ago.
This trip will be suitable for most, but please note this trip will not be run by Club Coaches, but will be run by suitably competent people to run this level of river and experience of leading trips on this level / type of water.
There is the chance that we may be able to take a small number of club boats if people require these, you will need to arrange to meet us at a suitable time to select a boat and appropriate paddling kit and paddle. You will need to transport the kit and paddle.
If you are bringing your own boat please ensure it is buoyancy/air bags installed.
If you wish to attend please contact Rich below:
by 1900 on 14th October.
Please ensure you leave a mobile number as we may need to alter or cancel the session at the last minute depending upon water levels.
Regards
Rich
WYCC Chairman
