Paddle / Launch Guidelines

By state law, every paddler must have a Coast Guard-approved personal flotation device (PFD), and children under 6 must wear a PFD at all times while in a watercraft. We recommend that all children under 13 wear a PFD while paddling the river.
Our shorelines are fragile ecosystems, so please restrict launching and landing to designated areas only.
Plan ahead and let someone know your paddling agenda.
Leave No Trace. No littering or dumping of trash or personal items. Dispose of your waste in the provided receptacles at designated launch sites.
Do not disturb natural or cultural resources including wildlife.
Respect private property. Do not trespass unless in an emergency situation.
No camping allowed so plan your trip ahead of time.
Take turns and be respectful when launching at any access site.
