How far North can you get? cajones 15 posts Joined 9/2/2006 Re: River conditions Posted: 04 Feb 07 5:45 PM I rode from Independence to the Littleton damn. The river is in good shape. There are a few opens spots that are relatively small. You can easily go around them. Once you get to Littleton, it looks like you can cross over on a short bridge of ice. Some people are shooting the water to get over, but I don't think you have to. I could have kept going, but turned around due to low fuel. Next Saturday I am planning on going much further up the river. Has anyone jumped off the river and headed toward dunkerton? Anybody ride to Fairbank this year via water? cajones 15 posts Joined 9/2/2006 Taking the river to Anamosa! Posted: 19 Feb 07 10:02 AM  Last Friday I took the day off of work and left my place, got on the river at Quasky, and headed south. The river was in great condition. There were a few open spots, but all of which you could go around them with no trouble at all. I went around the damn at Troy Mills and Central City and proceed to Anamosa. About 15 miles or so south of Central City, I got into some bad stretches so I turned around and came back, got off at Central City and rode Hwy 13 back to manchester, then over to Winthrop. I should have taken the river all the way back. Looking at the map, about a mile or so north of Anamosa, i turned off on a creek, hence the bad stretch. I could have kept going south. After this week, I don't think that will be possible. What is the furthest south anyone has ridden???  Page 1 of 1   Discussions  The River  River condition...
