In spite of some degree of storm threat, we actually had a very nice evening on the water of Sylvan Lake. In fact, the cloud cover shielded us from the sun and made it all the nicer. Only 5 paddlers this week, with 2 canoes, 3 kayaks, and 3 types of kayak paddles! Keith and … Continue reading Sylvan Lake 8.23.25

It was a beautiful day for a paddle, albeit somewhat breezy, and at least 4 of us read Mike's email about going to Golden Lake.

But aside from the gold, we all had a really great time paddling Golden Lake, Hogback Lake, and the channel in between.
