4 days, 3 nights of perfect canoeing with mildly challenging Class II's
Sheltowee Trace Adventure Resort - Day Tours的点评
点评:For spring break, my son and I canoed the Big South Form between Leatherwood Ford and Yamacraw Bridge. We began the trip overnight at Sheltowee Trace Adventure Resort in a well-appointed cabin. Sheltowee accommodated our trip perfectly. The canoe, PFDs and paddles were in great shape. In the morning, we followed Dale to drop off our car at Yamacraw Bridge and he shuttled us to Leatherwood Ford. Along the way he was a great source of information about the river, camping and general local knowledge. Drop off was great and when we got to Yamacraw, all we needed to do was pull the canoe up and leave.
The trip itself was wonderful. Perfect temperatures and sunshine. There are several nervy Class II rapids along the way - especially for a gear-heavy canoe but do-able with a little skill. Because this was our first trip, we often pulled to shore ahead of a class II to examine it from shore.
Our first night we stayed at Station Camp which had fire rings, tables and a really nice pit toilet. The second and third nights were spent primitive camping alongside the river. Really fun.
翻译:春假期间,我和儿子在莱瑟伍德福特和亚马克劳桥之间划独木舟游览 Big South Form。我们在 Sheltowee Trace Adventure Resort 一间设备齐全的小屋里过夜,开始了这次旅行。Sheltowee 完美地满足了我们的旅行需求。独木舟、PFD 和桨都状况良好。早上,我们跟着 Dale 把车停在亚马克劳桥,然后他把我们送到了莱瑟伍德福特。一路上,他向我们介绍了很多关于河流、露营和当地常识的信息。送我们去亚马克劳时,我们只需要把独木舟拉上来就可以离开了。
这次旅行本身很棒。气温和阳光都很完美。沿途有几条令人紧张的二级急流 - 尤其是对于装备很重的独木舟来说,但只要有一点技巧就可以做到。因为这是我们的第一次旅行,所以我们经常在二级急流来临之前靠岸,从岸上检查它。
我们的第一晚住在 Station Camp,那里有火圈、桌子和一个非常好的蹲坑厕所。第二和第三晚我们在河边简陋的露营地度过。真的很有趣。
