This is most definitely one of the best kayaking journeys I have taken thus far and I was only sad that no one could come and enjoy it with me! It was absolutely fabulous. I highly recommend this site! One of the greatest aspects (out of many) is that it…
Yes indeed, my kayaking adventure involved three different rivers today! It was absolutely beautiful. The Fall colors are beginning to show everywhere and it was well worth the time spent! My kayaking trip today began at Buena Vista Boat Launch in Polk County. This area underwent a significant update last…
There are some startling statistics I would like to share with you! “Paddling fatalities, which increased yet again in 2023 to nearly one in three (32.5 percent) recreational boating deaths in the United States, up from 27.4 percent in 2022.” Read that again!
