7-Mile Paddle on the OHIO River

VENUE CHANGE: OHIO RIVER!

WE WILL RALLY AT THE UofL BOATHOUSE, PARK VEHICLES THERE, AND SHUTTLE BOARDS UP TO CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS AND LAUNCHING FROM CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS ON THE OHIO. BRING $10 FOR YOUR LAUNCH FEE.

Sunday looks to be beautiful and sunny! Lets take advantage of that and hit the OHIO River!

We will launch from the boat dock at Captain's Quarters and then paddle down river to the UofL Boathouse. There will be some wind to contend with in the river valley and wake possibly commercial traffic (barges).

This will be an longer paddle suitable for intermediate to advanced paddlers in potentially challenging conditions. Pace of the paddle will depend on both individual goals and river conditions.
