River Boat Location Information
Article by: Jane
The river rises in the eastern-most end of the Eastern Barrier Range. It is navigable from the spectacular Emerald Falls to the sea, a distance of about 750 miles. It is an old river, seated in wide river plains, and it has a tendency to flood those plains in response to extreme weather in its catchment. Because of its low, wide nature, the floods are very slow-moving and holders are able to take precautions before they arrive.
The climate along the river varies from unvaryingly tropical climate at the harbour (average high of 88º F / 31º C and average low of 71º F / 22º C, all Turn) to temperate at Emerald Falls Hold (average winter high of 67°F / 19°C and winter low of 53°F / 12°C, average summer high of 85°F / 29°C and summer low of 69°F / 21°C).
