Time for a different kind of fun---paddling in rapids in big boats, that is, whitewater boats ~8 feet or longer and sea kayaks. This will be a chance for sea kayakers (with an SK0 rating minimally; SK1 preferred) and whitewater kayakers (R1 minimum) to get together to paddle in the waves and swirly water of Prairie du Sac. This really is a trip for paddlers with at least some moving water experience (paddling at Sac, Badfish Creek or Koshonong Creek before). We'll work on ferries, eddy turns, peel outs and attainments---and just give you a chance to get comfortable in pushy water in bigger boats.
Given shorter daylight hours let's start assembling at 4:30 so we can quickly depart and get there with sufficient time left for a couple of hours of good paddling. You know what to bring---and yes, we'll likely stop at Culver's afterward. Count on maybe $4-5/person for gas.
