Tuesday July 15 - Kenmore Paddle for those that have their own kayaks

Description: We will paddle at the north end of Lake Washington

It's Summer, the weather is supposed to be nice , it's time for a paddle.

As discussed earlier with the cost of maintaining the gear, I am starting to post events separated into the ones where people borrow gear (I'll charge $10 for those) and ones where people have their own gear (those will remain free).

Lets meet for a paddle on Lake Washington and the slough. This trip will depend on the weather. We’ll meet at Logboom Park at 6:30pm for a 60-90 minute evening paddle.

Schedule:

6:15-6:30 find parking

6:30-6:45 carry kayaks to the beach

6:45-8:00 - paddle

8:00-8:15 carry kayaks back to the trailer

8:30 - pizza at Pagalacia

This trip is for those that have your own kayak:

The water is warmer this time of year and it's frequently windy, our launch and route is fairly sheltered but we still need to use our heads and our equipment. . If you are signing up in this meetup, I am assuming that you have your own kayak, if you need to borrow, then sign up in the other event. [b]Rating:[/b] This trip is rated ‘protected’ or SK1.
