From Telegraph Cove, we'll noodle along the shoreline to Ten Mile Point before crossing Baynes Channel to Strongtide Island. We will then circumnavigate Chatham and Discovery islands in a clockwise direction, exploring the many nooks and crannies along the way. We'll stop for lunch at the campsite at Rudlin Bay before continuing our circumnavigation and returning to Telegraph Cove.
As this energizer paddle will encompass some open water crossing and possible currents, a good forward stroke is mandatory. If you have any questions about your suitability for this trip, please reach out to me directly.
Route plan B
TBD. If the weather is uncooperative, an alternate site will be chosen closer to the date.
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.
