PLEASE NOTE: many canoe and kayak guides are in .PDF format and at first, you
may not get to the page that has information about the particular place you
clicked. If this happens, try refreshing or closing that tab and try again, or
scroll to the page number at the end of the URL.
The description of a particular access point may not be at the top of the page you land on.
Try scrolling down or using the search function.
We have tried to only show places that most people can use, but there may be access points shown by accident that are on shared private property.
Be sure to follow the links and find out if permission is needed to use any
access location that is new to you. Please let us know if you find someplace we
should not be showing. And of course, let us know of new places to add!.
