Here is the basic plan. Brown Canoe rental is located at our take
out point, so if we go with them we can float and leave whenever
we get back there, Bass we have to meet them at a certain time
since it isn't a regular location for them. Also Brown wants
$30.00 per canoe, cash or check only. Let's meet at Brown's at
9:00 and go from there. This is where Highway E crosses the Huzzah
river. Coordinates are N 38 01.735 W 91 12.814.
From I-44 take the Leasburg exit (214) and take Highway H south
past Onondaga State Park to Cave Rd. (same road) then Cave Rd. to
State road E to the coordinates.
From Highway 8, just take 8 to highway E and it's 6 miles to
Brown's.
If the river is way up or it looks like major storms we can
discuss it Saturday.
Ethan is also working on an Earthcache for the area that might be
published by then.
My phone # is 314 954-7933 if you have any other questions.

Forest Ghost & Major134 just published 12 caches along the
Courtois Creek down near Onondaga state park. They are all 5
terrain and each level of difficulty. Sarah & I would like to
go this Sunday to float the area and get these. Is anybody
else up for the trip? We will be contacting one of the
outfitters down there to rent canoes since we don't have one.
Too short of notice to make an event, and lots of events are
coming up soon. The first along the creek is GC4H4AV. It is a
great and easy float stream.
