Lune Tour

The reason that we always put the Lune on the calendar is that it is unusual in that it makes a good paddle at most water levels.
For those that have never done it before, it is a technical grade three river, with a couple of sections that are known to capsize people. However they are not dangerous, and if you are unsure, they are easily portaged.
The trip is expected to take about three hours from getting on the water to getting off, but when you add in shuttles before and after the run, we will be out for the most of the day. It is a good idea to pack some light snacks and drinks to have on the trip. Three hours is quite a long time to be on the water, and you should be prepared for the cold. Please wear as a minimum a good cag and a layer or two of warm clothing underneath
Meet 9.00 at Burton Services between junction 35 and 36 on the M6, to leave the services at 9.30. It takes about 1 hour from Stockport to get there at legal speeds!
Please let me know if you are coming, or if you wish to come and need transport, or want to share.
