Yesterday we took the 16 mile trip and it was fun and we had a few close calls. The water in the lower section of the 16 mile trip moves along nicely. On this trip we took 3 canoes and 11 kayaks. If you have never paddled down the Whitewater river, I would recommend it. Morgan's rent the Old Town canoes with the seat back for $5 more that the metal canoes.
I am wondering if there are other good places to go in Indiana. I have been to Sugar Creek at Shades and Turkey Run. While the scenery is beautiful the water always seems to be crowded and the water level low. I like paddling, not dragging a boat over rocks. So help me out here and tell me your favorite places to rent canoes and kayaks. thanks! |
As for Sugar Creek, the last 2 times we went the timing was perfect. Durring the INGO Float Trip we when we scouted the area out beforehand the water was up and all the canoe / kayak rental places were closed. We didn't see one person on the water when we went on the float and only 2 kayakers when we went on the scout. I recommend watching the weather and wait for a nice day after a couple days of hard rain. We've got some pics in the "INGO Events Thread".
