Northern Colorado Fitness Paddling

I have created Northern Colorado Fitness Paddling group on Facebook to coordinate our winter paddling on the South Platte River. I will post incoming events and updates there as well as in a calendar on a sidebar here. Paddlers of all skills and fitness level are welcome to join us.

For the next few weeks we are focusing on upstream/downstream paddle workouts. Water level is getting rather low in the South Platte, so we will probably paddle on the river segment between Evans and Kuner.

The first group paddling took place on January 31, 2010 – five paddlers in a variety of kayaks. We paddled from Kersey about 3 miles upstream to the Poudre River confluence and back downriver. We had a nice weather and plenty of water to paddle at ~450 cfs at Kersey
