Good Paddling, Close to Home

22 Sep

In an age of four-dollar gasoline, finding exciting, inspiring places to paddle close to home is more important than ever.

Greg Breining, writing for the Minneapolis Star Tribune, found that the St. Croix River, an hour-and-a-half from his home in the bustling Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area, offered the same wilderness values of farther-away, more remote paddling destinations.

In his story, HERE, Breining’s near-by river — a designated National Scenic Riverway — took him back in time and helped him find that timeless peace wild country can provide.
