Squam Lake Navigation PaddleSquam Lake Navigation paddle Sunday June 29th
This will a fun paddle with a focus on enjoying Squam Lake ( like any paddle there), and also on navigation: Squam Lake is scenic, dotted with islands, with lots of bite -sized crossings from island to island: a great place to practice navigation by moving from island to island using chart and compass.
L2 trip which may become L3 trip if there is wind and/or fog.
General plan will be the nickel tour of Squam Lake : Piper Cove to Bowman and Moon islands, thence to “The Yards” and Rattlesnake Cove , and return via Long Island and the Three Sisters . Loat plan is flexible. Total trip distance will be about nine miles.
Meet at the Squam Lake Association Parking Lot at Piper Cove
Gather at 10:45 for an 11:00AM launch.
There is a parking/launch fee of $5 at this location.
Unload boats and pay fee at the shed down by the boat launch , and park in the lot up the hill next to the Squam Lakes Assoc. office
The Squam Lake chart can be purchased inside at the office, This is a unique chart, created by Bradford Washburn, a famous mountaineer, amateur cartographer, and long time president of the Museum of Science, who lived on Squam Lake. I'll have a few duplicates, but this chart is invaluable for anyone planning future paddles on Squam Lake.
