Fullish Moon Paddle

Description

Yes, we know the full moon is a couple of days later, but there will still be enough moonlight for a truly magical evening as we paddle down the Ipswich River. We'll watch for ducks, herons, and other birds flying by, and bats flitting above the water catching insects. It's possible that river mammals including beavers, muskrats, or otters might even swim past our boats. Once the sun has set, we will listen for owls and experience the sounds of the nocturnal river habitat. We'll stop on one of the river islands to enjoy a campfire and snacks. The nearly full moon will light our way on our return paddle to the canoe landing.

Checking registration status.
