Great low-stress trip

Trip Overview

We put in at about 3:30 pm at the Mottville Canoe Park off Riverside Road. We paddled leisurely for about 4 and a half hours until we reached the end point in Bristol at the boat launch at the end of Apollo St.

We chatted with the friendly residents along the river, stopped and swam at some of the shallow banks in the nearly-bath temperature water, and spotted herons, turtles, fish, eagles, and various birds. The current carried us a good part of the way, though towards the end we opted for paddling.
