Itinerary:

Please join me for an after work WINTER paddle from Azalea Park. We will be paddling downstream toward Bull Sluice along the cut-ins for Gold Branch for approximately 45 minutes until we get to the cut out at the cliffs, and then from there we will turn around and take approximately 1 hour to come back upstream. There is not much of a current, so it should be good for all that have paddling experience. Show up a little early to unload, do your paddle pre-check and intros...we'll get in/on the water at 4:30p.m. SHARP! earlier the better.

MUST HAVE USCG APPROVED BOATING LIGHT
