Itinerary
Itinerary description

We will meet at the put-in (Willow Creek Parking Lot, along George Johnston Road) for 10am and shuttle to the take-out which is nearby. We should then be on the water by 10:30 am.

Required Items to Bring

Bag lunch.
Dry change of clothes. Might need bug spray.
Water shoes/boots, there is some wading.
Awareness that through the main section, there will be nowhere to land. Thus, nowhere to find a bathroom either! Please watch your coffee intake.

Recommended Items to Bring

Rain gear just in case; it could be warm and sunny, it could be cold and raining. A compass!
If you have a gps it would be a good thing to bring. I do not have one.
