Widgeon Creek - June 25
Join us as we go to Widgeon Creek and Waterfalls. We start our trip at the shores of Pitt Lake to take a canoe paddle to Widgeon Slough and up to Widgeon Creek. We will pull the canoes out of the water and hike up to the waterfalls. The waterfalls have great spots to stop for lunch and shallow pools to cool off. You will need to have some canoeing or kayaking experience and will need to be comfortable on the water. The hike is an easy hike. The total trip there and back is five (5) hours.
WHEN: Saturday June 25, 2016. The canoe and hike trip is from 11AM- 4PM.
WHAT TO BRING/WEAR: Refillable water bottle, lunch and snacks. If you wish, clothes to change into after the hike. Please dress appropriately with easy to move in active wear. Please wear sturdy hiking boots or runners. You may want to bring water shoes or sandals for the canoe trip because you may need to be walking in the water to push the canoe. Also bring a towel if you plan to go swimming. Be mindful of the weather and bring the appropriate gear as we will be hiking rain or shine. Gear can include: a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen if it is sunny, or a rain jacket if it is rainy.
Note, anything you bring with you on the hike you will have to carry as there are no spots to store your stuff during the hike.
