Due to the rain that occurred today the water level for Monday September 5th, Labor Day will be excellent, and a level more normal for the month of June. It will be a great time to experience the Little Miami River, hope to see you on the River!
Yes we are open and running canoe, kayak and raft trips weekdays this first week of September every hour on the hour from 10-4. This Saturday the 3rd, Sunday the 4th and Monday Labor Day we run trips every hour 9-4. River conditions are what I would call normal early Sep level, meaning it is not high but also not too low. Most people can take a trip in one of our plastic canoes and not get out due to low water, and a few might get out a couple of times. Hope to see you on the river this weekend!
River conditions will be great this weekend as we currently are experiencing high water conditions due to a heavy thunderstorm Wednesday night in the upper watershed. Water levels should be OK for Friday and will be a couple of inches above normal August levels for the weekend, making for an excellent trip on the River. Hope to see you on the River!
A trip down the river is one way to deal with this excessive heat. It is about 10-15 degrees cooler in the river corridor due to the cooler temp of the water and the high amount of evaporation that is occurring. And of course the river itself is usually about 75 degrees in the summer, so many people jump in to cool off. Come on out this weekend and cool off with a trip down the river!
We are expecting a great weekend for enjoying the beauty of the Little Miami River. The level of the River has been great and we did receive about a inch of rain early in the week to help keep it at a great level! Hope to see you all out on the River this weekend, and as always trips depart every hour on the hour Sat 9-4 and Sun10-4. Good to arrive about 30 minutes prior to departure time.
RiverEdge will be open and running canoe,kayak and raft trips every hour on the hour from 9:00am to 4:00pm Friday July 1, Sat the 2nd, Sun the 3rd and of course Monday July 4th! Conditions are expected to be excellent with highs near 90 and the Little Miami River at near perfect levels. Come out and enjoy the River!
Conditions are looking great for the upcoming weekend! The level of the River is near perfect and we are expecting sunny and hot weather. Don’t let the weather forecasters ruin your plans, as they will predict a chance of rain nearly every day it is hot and humid. We will run trips every hour on the hour 9-4 Sat and 10-4 Sun. Hope to see you on the River!
Everything is shaping up for a great weekend of canoe, kayak and raft trips on the Little Miami River! We are removing the remaining obstacles (trees) in the river today and the river level is down to a excellent level.
We are finally set to open on Sunday May 29 and Monday Memorial Day with canoe, kayak and raft trips on the Little Miami River running every hour on the hour from 10 am to 4 pm. This has been one of the most unusual springs in our 28 year history with the constant rainy conditions and high water. We are hopeful that from this point on we will have more normal weather conditions. Hope to see you on the river real soon so you can experience the beauty of the Little Miami River!
Recently while scouting the river for the upcoming 2011 canoe kayak and rafting season a bald eagle was spotted on the Little Miami River. Bob Allbery, Judd Platenburg and I were paddling our 9 mile trip and saw a mature bald eagle just North of the Route 725 bridge. We are hopeful that a nest may be in the area. Bald eagles were spotted on the Lower River last year, but as far as I know this is the first sighting on the upper river.
