WEATHER & WATER CONDITIONS PERMITTING

Spend a lovely day on the water exploring the Glenmore Reservoir. We'll be going along the shoreline, visiting the mouth of the Elbow River and Weaselhead area to observe wildlife. Generally have a nice evening out.

We'll have the boats on the water at 2pm and need to be off the water by 4:30pm sharp. Please be at the meeting point prior to 2pm.

Beginners are welcome. There is no lesson, but newbies will be assisted and accompanied until comfortable. You should also be comfortable being in a small narrow boat on the water. While the weather is usually calm, winds can sometimes generate waves in which you might get splashed. Bring a spare change of clothing just in case.

The kayaks provided will be recreational kayaks without rudders, although many will be higher end rec boats which have the same hull design as touring boats.

Note:
NO JEANS OR COTTON CLOTHING TO BE WORN.
