Late autumn paddle: Squam Lake, Sunday 10/27

[PeterB]

It's late autumn but there is still colorful foliage and Sunday's weather forecast looks okay for a last hurrah autumn foliage outing, so;

meet at the Squam Lakes Association Boat Launch at Pipers Cove for a 10:30 launch.

There's a 5$ fee to park there for the day .

Proposed route will be: Pipers Cove to Bowman or Moon Island, thence to the Yards Islands ( a pleasant spot even by Squam Lake standards , with a shallow sandy bottom) and up to Rattlesnake Cove , return via Long Island.

Total mileage should be 10-12 miles.

There shouldn't be much boat traffic, winds can be harsh, so I would consider this an L3 paddle. With temperatures in the 50's, drysuits would be comfortable and advised, otherwise immersion wear needed.

If you are interested, post here or PM me.

Thanks, Peter
