UPDATE
Here is a tentative schedule.
The Friday earlybird paddle - Crooked Creek. It is on route 12, 1.5 miles east of the campground.
The Saturday paddle - Indian River. We will take Red Lake Rd which is between routes 21 and 22 - but we need to turn on Bridge Street in Theresa to get to it. Nelson Rd will be on the left off of Red Lake Rd. Nelson Rd turns into a dirt road. We will bear left by the Indian River Wildlife Management sign. The launch is on the left. Some maps called this the Red River. Coordinates are Long -75.76059 Lat 44.2652 but my GPS kept wanting me to turn into the woods, so they may not be helpful.
The paddle Sunday - Goose Bay. We can launch from the campground. Wind may be a factor. Alternate paddle is Sixberry Lake. It was discovered by pioneer Robert Sixberry. He was an orphan who ran away to live with the Indians. He supposedly lived over 112 years. The fishing access is off route 21. Lat/Long: 44.280056 -75.774948
