24 is realistic, on a good year maybe closer to 52, but with a baby around, I'll settle for realistic, or maybe I shoulda checked 6.

Remember if you do nine day at ALF, leave work at 1500 on rainy summer days, live close to the Ocoee, or can get to the Little, Crooked Fork and Tellico in an hour it is easy too run up your numbers.

OC1King you are full of it check with your wife she has an accurate count of your trip and if it ain't over a hundred it is darn close.

I'm assuming the count is of just "days" and should not include daily doubles or trifectas!

20 + is the norm... use to be more but life gets in the way!

I kept up with the number of times last year and it was 24 which was the most I've ever been able to paddle. I'm hoping to go as much or more this year.

I don't think I want to bring that up with her. :o

But I say a conservative guess would be 90-100. I can think of 4 weekends I didn't paddle. And three or four I only went 1 out of 2 days. :D

April to November, 4-6 times a week. The rest of the time, whenever the wind-chill temperature is over 25F. Usually comes out about 150-200 days a year.
