day 2 night CT river Adventure::
We meet you at Harbor Park in Middletown, where you
will have lunch and receive detailed instructions on the fundamentals of paddling. From
there we will load up for the adventure. You will be guided down the river to
the campsite by the lead boat, while the
River Sweeper will stay to the back encouraging the group along and offering any
tidbits of information that may help you improve your stroke for
efficiency. All the while the provisions guide will be staying to the middle of
the pack making sure everyone is hydrated and safe. At
camp 2 guides put together dinner while the
third facilitates games and activities, after making sure that camp is up. After
dinner we go for a night hike finishing off at the campfire for s'mores
and stories.
The
next day the group will wake up to the yummy scents of breakfast cooking on the
fire. After breakfast we break camp and head off for another day of paddling.
Lunch is by the Goodspeed Opera House. We will then
meander
through the marshland rivers of Wishbone Creek and Chapman’s Pond where you can
view bald eagles, osprey, pheasant, and deer in natural habitats that can only
be reached by water (hey don't forget to drop in your fishing line we here that there are whoppers in
there) finishing off at the predetermined camp site. The day finishes off much
like the prior evening.
After
Breakfast on day 3 we head south to the take out in Essex, Connecticut. Along
the way we will explore Selden's Creek, where we might be able to find a great
spot to go swimming. From there we head south stopping frequently for swim
breaks. The guides will point out the different wild life through out the day.
We have seen Bald Eagles and Osprey on most of the trips in this area. We end
our adventure in Essex. Enjoy work!
