A buddy and I are talking about paddling somewhere warm for Christmas.
He has only one week available. We would probably both fly rather than drive, especially since we live 1000 miles apart. So far I have considered the Baja, the Everglades, and Big Bend. What else should I consider? Cost is a consideration. Baja - probably go with a guided trip, since we do not know the area, I have not paddled a kayak in 10 years, and never a sea kayak. However, most of the guided trips seem to be 8 or 10 days, and that will not work for him. Everglades - I have spent a couple of weeks sailing in Florida Bay, so I know what to expect, at least to some degree. We would probably take a canoe. Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park - rapids could be a concern, since my buddy is not a white water canoeist, but I figure that we could portage anything that looked troublesome. But a one boat whitewater trip is probably not a good idea. Ideas? Richard -- http://www.fergusonsculpture.com Sculptures in copper and other metals |
