Despite the weather forecasts - rain and gale force winds - a few of
us (David P, Chris S, Dan, Matt S) ran effectively a pilot trip on the
River Mole from Castle Mill Weir, Dorking, to River Lane, Fetcham. After
heavy rain the previous day, the river was brown and quite high (the
Box Hill stepping stones were well covered) and flowing quite quickly.
As a result, it's hard to judge what the river would normally be like!
The 9 miles took a couple of hours. A pleasant paddle - though at normal
levels, with much less flow, the distance might become tedious.
