I am planning an excursion to run the Middle and Lower Licking river from Morehead to Cincinnati\/Newport. While I am preparing and expecting to do so alone, I’d be happy to have some company!<\/p>\n
Starting point will be the boat ramp at Cave Run Dam spillway. Endpoint is Schmidt Boat Ramp<\/a>, located river right approximately 1 mile upstream on the Ohio from Licking River confluence. Travel time will be approximately 5-6 days with a planned stopover at Blue Licks<\/a> and resupply at Falmouth. Other possible portages are being researched. The Licking River is a class I difficulty river, with occasional swift current and strainers but little to no white water. Of greater concern will be portage and supplies as most of the river flows through private farms.<\/p>\n If interested, please leave a comment on this post and the your best possible times. Plan is for September, but can be pushed as far as mid October if needed. Cincinnati ramps close on November 1. Further details will be added here as they become available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A 200 mile run from Cave Run Lake to Cincinnati on the scenic Licking River.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[24],"tags":[306,19,113],"class_list":["post-435","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adhd_adventure","tag-adhd-adventure","tag-kayaking","tag-outdoor-opulence"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5lNM5-71","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/435","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=435"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/435\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":541,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/435\/revisions\/541"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.caskeys.com\/dc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
