Hello Paddlers,

I'd like one more hurrah of a good paddling day this fall.  If conditions improve, I can lead a paddling trip. 

I'm hoping for any one of the following three:

- Wolf River, Sec 4, minimum 250 cfs
- Peshtigo River, minimum 7" at Hwy C Bridge
- Lake Michigan, waves >= 3 feet.

I think r3p's could come on any of those.  For surfing Lake Michigan, sea kayakers with sk1 would be welcome.  Waves >5 feet would be awesome, but the paddler rating would probably go up a notch or two.

Marine Forecasts:

Rivers:

The marine forecasts are very short term, so any surfing and (knowing me) river trips will be short notice.  Lake Michigan waves are GREAT fun.  Watch those flags, think EAST wind!

Let me know of any questions.  Friday, 9/22, Lake Michigan is a great example of what I'm looking for.  I can only go on a Sat or Sun.

ps:  obviously, functional, petroleum based paddling gear must be worn (ie: fleece, pile, neoprene, paddling jacket, dry suit, etc).
