On May 31st a few of my buddies are looking to take our 10 yrs old sons on a canoe float trip. We are wanting to give the boys plenty of play time and stop at the cave. With the current water conditions, do you think we could float that long of a trip in 2 days?

Pulltite to 2rivers is around 25 miles...IMO, thats two FULL days of paddling w/o much time for anything else.... I'd probably go with a shorter float with kids along..probably Cedar to Akers for a day float, or Akers to Pulltite or Pulltite to Round Spring if an overnight trip is in order.

Normally I would totally agee with you, but an outfitter told me that people are normally going 8 miles in 3 hrs. She also told me she had a lady do it 2 hrs and stopped for lunch. A friend of mine was on the Current river about 2 weeks ago and he said it was running about twice as fast as normal. He floats it several times a year and said that was the easiest one he has ever done.

Depends on water levels. I was out yesterday and I can tell you if you have to choose between going short and having time to just sit and enjoy, or going long and having to huff it, go short! We had a blast and hardly went five miles.
