Paddling Tips

•Expect tight turns and occasional strainers (downed trees across the water).
•A shorter kayak or canoe (under 12 feet) handles creek turns more easily.
•Creek levels can rise quickly after rain — avoid paddling during or after storms.
•Bring bug spray — shaded creeks can have active mosquitoes.
