12 - 3/28/09 - Green River Gorge

After a week of planning various possibilities, the weather turned wet and the Green came up. This was a suprise, as we were told that they were trying to fill the reservoir for some tests. Still, there's no reason to look this gift horse in the mouth - any chance to get on the Green is worthwhile. There are so many good rapids on the Green.

It rained all day, and near the end of the day it started snowing. It always seems warm in the gorge, but when we get to the bottom it gets colder. I think part of that has to do with the amount of work we're doing while paddling the gorge, but I also think the gorge traps warmer air.
