Trip Overview


THANKS to all paddlers who came out for the 2008 Shiawassee Fall Color Tour Paddle -- we had approximately 60 -70 kayakers/canoeists.

Another big thank you to Heavners Livery for additional rentals and shuttle service.

Sunny afternoon, light winds, temps in the mid 60's all made for a great day on the Shiawassee River in Holly, MI
