The trip was organised by Steve from River Canoe Club.
There were 7 paddlers: Steve, Dave, Matt, Rob, John, Enmoore and me.

River Height: River Level was 1.25 at the Berrima Gauge

Start: The Start was at the Berrima Camp Ground.

Description: The was pool drop with lots of small drops. Some of them were difficult to determine the best line. There was about 4 portages where the water disappeared under rocks.

Finish: Turn off Medway Road at Liebman Road and follow this down to a gate and then down a steep rough track to the river. The farmer (Steve) likes you to ask when you go down this track to the river.

The trip took out 4 hours 40 minutes and was 12.4 km with moving time of 2 hours 30 minutes.
