There is a major change of plans for this Friday! We are no longer headed to Congaree. I scouted out our route last weekend, and there is a lot of blowdown on the river, and would not be a good choice for a group of our size!!
The new plan will be to do a section of Lynches River that would be closer to Florence and a familiar, group-friendly route! We plan to meet at the HWY 52 landing on Lynches River at 8:00 AM promptly! Alternatively, you can meet me at Naturally Outdoors promptly at 7:30 to follow me to the landing.
We'll paddle from the landing to Indigo Landing (about a 4-hour paddle). We'll have to shuttle a vehicle from the 52 landing before we depart. We should be off the water around 2 PM.
Please pack your lunch, a water bottle, and a towel! The weather forecast is sunny and in the 70s.
A kayak or canoe is highly recommended for this paddle. Kids are welcome! PFDs are required. Rentals are available through Naturally Outdoors.
PLEASE confirm by text or call that you've received this message. My cell # is 843-758-1213. I'm happy to answer any questions or concerns.
I'm excited about our group that's signed up this week. About 4-5 others from Naturally Outdoors' staff will be joining us as well!
