Huron River - Hudson Mills to Delhi Rapids

We will paddle from Hudson Mills Metropark to Delhi Metropark. This trip is about 9.5 miles. We will plan to stop part way at the Dexter Huron Metropark where we will eat lunch/snacks that you bring along. If you'd like a shorter trip, you may also take-out here.

This is a beautiful stretch of the Huron River that ends at Delhi Rapids, where many in the group are sure to play. There is one other spot along the way where you can play a tad bit.

Be ready (boat off car and everything you need in the boat) at the meeting spot at 10AM. We will shuttle cars and then start paddling when we return.

Bikers are welcome to bring their bikes to make it a paddle-pedal. Please stage your bikes before the paddle at the take-out. The Border to Border Trail is a very popular biking destination.

As with all events, you are the only one responsible for your safety. Paddle at your own risk. No boats are provided. Enjoy alcohol if desired after the paddle, not on the water. Don't wear cotton. If it is cool, bring a change of clothes in a dry bag or large ziploc.

The metroparks charge $10 for entry, which will cover both parks. Many of the east siders probably have passes so we will carpool as best we can from the campground.
