Last time I did this paddle I lost the main channel. Today I had the GPS out and carefully paddled looking for it. The whole area is inundated, and  the main channel should  have been  to the west, but I couldn't paddle over very shallow areas to see if was really there. - so a repeat performance of "What happened to the river?" Could the Google map be right off ?.. or just me?
