After launching at Amherst beach access, we will noodle towards Roberts Bay and do a shoreline out of the bay. Then we’ll head into Tsehum Habou and fully explore every nook and cranny. It is a very high ide so we should be able to go all the way in. We’ll explore the north shore and then come back via the south shore. Lunch will be at the beach access just outside Blue Heron basin. The return to Amherst will be a direct route across Roberts Bay.

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.
