Description
Have you ever seen a muskrat swimming or a beaver slapping its tail in alarm? We'll look for these elusive mammals while canoeing along the Ipswich River at dusk. Discover some of the clues--such as chewed trees, lodges, or burrows on the riverbank--that they leave behind as we paddle.
Before launching the boats in the water, our certified instructors will provide basic canoeing instruction.
