Come out for a relaxing, slow-paced creek trip. Maybe we'll head up Dutch Kills and look for heron and egrets. Maybe we'll head to the Turning Basin and beyond. Maybe we'll watch the sun set beyond Manhattan. I am happy to talk about the history and environmental challenges of the creek as we paddle or take some breaks to discuss these matters.

There is room for beginners on this trip, depending on the number of skilled stern paddlers that sign up. Please join the waitlist, and I will register you as spaces become available.
