UPDATE: We will meet at Washington Park between 11 and 11:30 for a launch time of 12:30. This trip is highly current dependent so leaving on time is critical.
The return will be to Washington Park on Friday July 31. The launch time will be early - 6:45 am on the water. Again - we need to meet the time set by nature when the water is moving. We should be back at Washington Park between 11am - 12pm.
I expect this sea kayak trip to have this difficulty and these conditions. View the sea kayak difficulties definitions on the Activity Types page.
