PADDLING ADVICE
All of our paddling trips are hands on experiences. You are responsible for carrying the boats to and from the creek. Because of changing creek conditions you will need to wear a pair of old shoes so that you can wade in the water just in case you need to exit your vessel and walk it through a shallow spot in the creek. So, there is work involved –just as with any creek paddling adventure. If you have no paddling experience let us know and we will gladly give you a short demo, but you will need to come early to allow time for this consultation.
