Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
It seems like whenever I mention "paddling" on this forum, someone thinks a little "spanking" is about to take place! But for you folks into canoeing and kayaking, please identify yourselves. Who enjoys travelling our lakes and rivers via manual propulsion?
We previously had done mostly canoe camping in places like the Boundary Waters Canoe Area in NE Minnesota, Quetico Provicial Park in southern Ontario, the Buffalo National Riverway in northern Arkansas, the Current and Jack Forks Rivers in central Missouri and similar places. But we've recently starting kayaking closer to home and we're enjoying it a lot. It's surprising what nice, peaceful places you can find just over the horizon from the skyline of Chicago.
Here's DW in her Perception Tribute 12 heading downstream on the Kankakee River in northern Illinois. This was part of a recent club outing and was a great day on the water. We travelled about 10 miles with a stop for lunch at a scenic spot in Kankakee River State Park.
