Description

A paddle from the Upper Shuswap River down toward Enderby during the salmon run

  • best suited to experienced paddlers in stable boats because there are some rapids, some narrow sections, some shallows, and we will be manoevering around deadheads and sweepers
  • article on the route – Shuswap River – and one more – Paddling with Salmon
  • we will shuttle a vehicle, dropping one off at the bridge, then we will launch upstream at a hand launch site
  • we will paddle together to keep an eye on each other and be available for support
  • some knowledge of self rescue is expected
  • the scheduling coincides with the peak of the salmon run
  • lunch on a beach along the route
  • meet early – 8:00 at Valleyview Square; participants can make their own arrangments to carpool, as needed
