G.T. Humanists Paddle Trip: Upper Boardman River

August 16 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join the Grand Traverse Humanists and experienced river guide Linnaea for a paddle trip down the upper Boardman/Ottaway River.
We’ll meet at Forks State Forest Campground (8585-8627 Brown Bridge Rd., just off of Supply Rd.), set up a shuttle, then paddle down the river to Brown Bridge landing. This is a trip of about 9.5 miles and is appropriate for adventurous beginners. It runs through lovely forested areas and ends up in the Brown Bridge area, which was formerly a dammed pond and has now been restored to river.
Bring your boat, paddle, extra clothes in a dry bag, snacks and water. We will probably stop for a break at Scheck’s equestrian campground. If people are interested, we may go to Peegeo’s for dinner/drinks afterward.
RSVP to Linnaea by emailing lmelcarek@gmail.com. Rain date will be August 23. Hope to see you there!
