WEATHER & WATER CONDITIONS PERMITTING

Spend a lovely evening 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 6pm and need to be off the water by 8:30pm latest.

Beginners welcome! There is no real lesson, but newbies will be assisted and accompanied until comfortable.

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