+Yuma4 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi all, Just wanted to let everyone know about a fun opertunity to see the southern part of the Colorado River as well as Camping at a wonderful Sate Park "Pichacho State Park. Event Canoe/Kayak Lower Colorado Event Event will take place on June 21/22nd. Feel free to look at the event page and make any suggestions for added activities. Quote Link to comment
+Corfman Clan Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) This looks fun and I'm interested in going. My big questions are about logistics. What's the plan to get back from the event site to the carpool site? Will the paddle continue Sunday to Yuma West Wetlands park? Then I figure there will be a trip from there to the launch site so those who drove to the launch site can get their vehicles? Is my assumption that everyone will need to bring their camping gear along on the paddle correct? Thanks. Edited April 10, 2014 by Corfman Clan Quote Link to comment
+Yuma4 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 For the First Canoe/Kayak the Lower Colorado Event, you will be on your own for getting your vehicle from the launch site to the camping site. 1. The store keep at Wlaters Camp has been known shuttle vehicles to Picacho. Not sure on price. 2. I have a 7 person car and can drive people back to the launch area after the event if you pitch in for gas 3. If we get some volunteers we can have a group of local cachers that may not wish to canoe but are willing to come up to the take off point and drive vehicles to the camp site. I will start looking for some volunteers for that. You will need to take your camping gear with you in the canoe unless you have someone willing to drop you off and meet you at the camp site. I am ending the event at Pichacho but the avid canoer can make their way to west wetlands but there will be 2 or 3 portages needed. So far there is just a small group of us going so I will not be reserving a group camp site, not much competition for the group site if we need it during June. Individual spots are plenty and the group of use can just get a few sites together for the camp out. Dinner, I will bring some hamburgers and hot dogs, it would be nice if everyone brought a side dish or camp dish to share that night. Quote Link to comment
