For this super fun trip... we will put in and take out at the same location, Lion's Levee Park in St. Paul Park. Travel the back channels of the Mississippi to see interesting rock outcroppings and islands that bloom with wildflowers in the summer. Watch for eagles, egrets, and beavers. Depending on the wind and current, we may choose to travel down and back up through the back channels. Or we'll paddle downstream on the Mississippi's main channel and back up through the backwaters. The trip will take 2-3 hours. This is a guided, group trip, and we can schedule it for 4 or more people. $89 plus tax* per person.
* Discounted price reflects if you help wipe out your own kayak at the end. Towels provided. Includes kayak rental (paddle and pfd). You provide transportation for yourself at both ends. We deliver and pick up the kayaks.
On this super fun trip... you will put in and take out at Mooers Lake in Cottage Grove and paddle the Grey Cloud Channel up and back. This is an interesting and scenic backwater to explore. This channel was blocked for decades and restored in 2017; now much effort has focused on habitat restoration here in the last few years. Watch for turtles, eagles and other bird species, and native wildflowers. The trip will take 2-3 hours and is a group, guided trip. We can schedule for four or more people, as our schedule allows. $89 plus tax * per person.
