  • Challenging
  • Mileage: 22.0 nm

TBA with leader's permission

I expect this sea kayak trip to have this difficulty and plan to paddle in up to these conditions (view the sea kayak difficulties definitions on our Activity Types, Difficulties & Prerequisites page):

  • Difficulty: SK III-IV+
  • Wind: 0-15 kts
  • Waves:  0-3+'
  • Currents: 3-5 kts
  • Distance:  20+ nm
  • Pace:  current assisted

Water will be rough so good bracing skills, immersion wear, helmets and kayak wheels required.  Optional camping fee on Friday if desired.
