We'll head out from the Cooper Cove launch and follow the shoreline to the end of Roche Cove. After a short rest break we'll return to our launch, following a somewhat more direct route.
Car-pooling to the launch can be considered for this trip for anyone comfortable with that option.
The Cooper Cove launch does not have a washroom and members should not use the washroom in the restaurant beside the launch. Our rest stop at Roche Cove has some good bush cover for a stealth call from Mother Nature.

Safety reminders
Always dress for the possibility of immersion and please bring a drybag containing a spare change of clothes. The drybag goes in your kayak with you, not in your car at the launch site. Please bring a lunch or snacks and sufficient beverage to keep you hydrated, as well as a thermos of something warm. Your paddle leader will introduce the plan and make sure everyone is comfortable with the requirements. Please stay off the water until the group is ready. If you have a VHF radio please bring it with you.
