| Description | We will go on a warm up paddle and find a suitable spot to practise bracing, wet exits and paddle float rescues as basic skills for club paddles. |
| Meeting Place | Mine Lake boat launch |
| Departure Time | 10:00 on the water |
| Difficulty | Moderate |
| Costs | none |
| Trip limits | 6-8, depending on previous experience |
| Dogs? | No |
| Notes: | If possible, bring to wear or borrow a lightweight paddling wet suit, as this facilitates getting immersed more than once. Have a towel and spare dry clothing and some lunch or snacks. A thermos of hot tea is not a bad idea for warming up after practise.
Participants should review kayaking information on the club site by going to: “Required gear and safety equipment”. Boats should also have adequate flotation in both bow and stern, with either built-in bulkheads or flotation bags or air bottles of some type, attached or contained in the boat. |
