   Open Water Kayak Touring Tell a Friend!
 
      Come join the ranks of paddlers everywhere enjoying one of the fastest growing forms of outdoor recreation. Whether it be from our local quiet lakes to the adventure of coastal kayaking, this full day course will start you on the right path. After a thorough review of all safety concerns including launching techniques and balance, we will proceed to the more advanced concepts of the forward stroke, sweep strokes, bracing and edging. To help build confidence, we will practice various methods of capsize re-entry with a partner's kayak and doing it solo. This is a fun, skill-building event using a single person, performance oriented open water kayak. No experience is required, but a reasonable fitness level and good spirit are two major pluses. Student instructor ratio is 4:1. Minimum of 6 required with a maximum of 12. Fee includes all kayaking equipment. Location will be at either Lake Valley Reservoir or Scotts Flat Lake, depending on access. For more information, call Wolf Creek Wilderness at (530)477-2722.
