Nothing is as serene as paddling down a glassy river or stream on a cool spring day in a canoe.
And nothing is as exhilarating as whitewater wilderness paddling. Recreational canoeists frequently enjoy canoeing in a single canoe with a partner or solo. Calm waters can conceal rocky crevices, high waters or lurking dangers. Use good judgment, common sense and preventative measures to insure a safe trip. Become knowledgeable about the sport before you plunge into it.
