Red Moshannon Creek
I saw a post from Mark V about this downriver race on the Red Moshannon Creek on March 26th 2022.
It's 7.5 miles of class I & II rapids. I believe I will be solo canoeing this race. Lots of different categories with lots of rules. https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=90173 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb-ZIGmSORA Great video of the creek Would anyone be interested?

Looks like a blast
Looks like a lot of fun. I may be a definite maybe. Time for the winner of that open boat class means he was traveling around seven miles per hour! My arms already ache thinking what it would take to keep up that pace especially so early in the season.

I'm thinking about doing this. It looks like fun, but I would be kayaking it, as I'm definitely not as skilled in the canoe as I am in the kayak. I did a "race" once before over here in PA on Ten Mile Creek, down in Washington County. Most of the folks were there for a good time, only a few were really in it to win it.

Good point, Mark. I think most people who enter the race (myself included) would be satisfied with a "participation" certificate.

I just signed up for the race. I am in the OC1 over 13ft long men's division.
Almost signed up for the over 40 division but decided not to. Looking forward to a whole new experience canoeing . Mike

Guys, I'm looking at hotels off of 80 at Clearfield. There seems to be a bunch, and rates that are showing seem reasonable. And there is a Walmart near-by for those last minute forgotten items. Also, I noticed on the google map, Denny's Beer Barrel Pub (famous) is located not far from that exit, for a meal after the race. I will be heading up Friday night and coming home Saturday PM. The Clearfield exit is only about 25-30 minutes to the put-in ... not quite sure yet if we have to first report elsewhere on race day to sign-in.

Red Moshannon Creek
This looks like a lot of fun.
Tom and I are planning to come to this just as spectators. Still a little too chilly for us. We would be happy to shuttle or support the racers in any way. Don't forget there is an awards banquet after the race where you can celebrate and pick up your trophies! Let me know if we can be of assistance in any way! See ya there! Darla |
