Meet at the Forks State Forest Campground launch between 930-10am. At 10am we will start  staging vehicles downstream.  Even if you don't plan to head down the river, please show up to see us off, help with staging, or take pictures. During this trip we will be picking up geocaches that were placed in June in preparation for archiving. If you have not already found these caches this will be your last chance!

Paddle the UPPER BOARDMAN

The best of the Boardman is the upper river which begins when 2 small streams, the north & south branches, converge near Supply Rd & Brown Bridge Rd, about 15 miles SE of TC. Here, the river is narrow, quick & shallow, averaging 15-20 feet wide and 2-4’ deep. The riverbanks are mostly forested with some open meadows and a few scattered cottages. The final couple miles along this stretch of river is quite open & the banks are filling in with new growth as the ‘new’ river flows through the former Brown Bridge Pond area. 

Forks State Forest Campground – Less than a mile from Supply on Brown Bridge Rd. There is a platform launch, new parking area and vault toilet (3.5 miles by dirt road, 2-3 hr. float to Scheck’s). (Ranch Rudolf is located between Forks & Scheck’s, but there is NO public exit or launch) 

Brown Bridge Landing – Platform launch, dirt & grass parking, vault toilet in season, on Brown Bridge Rd just east of Garfield Rd.
