Thanks Steve-O!
And, for Steve-O and others that may not know yet, the best one-stop-shop website for river levels for the Potomac and rivers within about 4 hours of here is: http://www.dckayak.com
The website not only aggregates all the river gauge data from our favorite runs, but you can sort it by what's running and what's not, it is color-coded to instantly see what's running (green), too high (blue) and too low (red). And, the Potomac Playspots tells you what spots on the potomac are in and out.
I have it bookmarked on my phone as well.
Yay Rivers!
Due to work constraints I won't be able to join you today and this weekend (drats - my loss!) but I will be racing and camping at the Cheat Canyon Campground (farthest from the festivities, but closest to the registration office and showers/bathrooms). The Cheat Canyon Campground is a bit cheaper than Teeters and has coffee/tea, muffins, and some basic breakfast sandwiches for sale in the mornings. We will have a family-friendly campsite set up. It is about a 10 min stroll (half-mile) to the festival site, making it quieter for the sleep-needy folks. All are welcome, as always. My tent will be marked with a Canadian Flag (as usual)

Hey all,--I am sad to admit that this is the last official week of Cheat Training. We have had our attainment and our downriver, our rolls and our swims, and our ups and down through this journey. I have learned a lot about how to control my boat during these 8 weeks as I hope you all have as well.I would like to encourage you all to sign up for the Cheat Race as I believe most of you are ready. If you feel as though you are not I encourage you to get together as a group and paddle the race at your own pace looking out for one another. Gaining the experience of racing is a really crucial skill if you would like to compete in more races.If you would like to gain some experience racing in a race that is pretty straight forward and within all of your abilities then check out the Seneca Showdown happening this Sunday. We have some awesome prizes including PFDs, dry bags, hats, and more.The river gods have blessed us with 70s and a rocky level for our last day. So we are going to take advantage of it. Lets all get an attainment up MD (Attempt it), Va, and Center before heading upstream. Get up wet bottom, If you try 3 times and dont succeed then carry your boat up and get to rocky. Once up at Rocky we will have a party surf! The sun set is not until 8 tonight so plan on being out there late!Hope to see all of you paddling lunatics out there!
