COMMUNITY RIVERS SEA REPORTS GRADES BOOKS

Piccies of the 18' Burrs weir from Nigel Crompton.

This was taken the day GMP's helicopter was chasing empty boats down the river looking for the ex-occupants. Turns out they'd chickened out (sensibly!) dragged their boats up the bank & walked out - the river rose so fast their boats were washed downriver before they came back for 'em...photo by Gail Flatley.
