Trip Overview


Originally went to find a geocache (GCVW41) but after the find, I found myself doing a little exploring.

I put in behind a small park along Front St X Melvin Ave. in Glendora. The tide was up & this was a nice paddle in the middle of suburbia. Along the way, I saw ducks, geese, heron, egret. Also, alot of turtles could be found sunning themselves.

I paddled up to the Black Horse Pike, then took my time floating down to the start of my trip. I only spent 1.5 hours on the water, but it was a great Friday afterwork escape close to home! I'll be back when I have a little more time to do more exploring & write a more extensive report. Thanks for letting me share.
