Despite Rain, Heat, and Blackflies, Sweepers Nearly Halfway to Goal of Completing Rapidan River

No matter the effort, it’s always the last 10% that is the back breaker. This year has been the toughest we’ve ever had.

At times it’s just one foot in front of the other, and after months, one day we will end up at the glorious Rappahannock.
