A buddy and I are talking about paddling somewhere warm for Christmas.
He has only one week available. We would probably both fly rather than
drive, especially since we live 1000 miles apart.
So far I have considered the Baja, the Everglades, and Big Bend. What
else should I consider? Cost is a consideration.
Baja - probably go with a guided trip, since we do not know the area, I
have not paddled a kayak in 10 years, and never a sea kayak. However,
most of the guided trips seem to be 8 or 10 days, and that will not work
for him.
Everglades - I have spent a couple of weeks sailing in Florida Bay, so I
know what to expect, at least to some degree. We would probably take a
canoe.
Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park - rapids could be a concern, since
my buddy is not a white water canoeist, but I figure that we could
****tage anything that looked troublesome. But a one boat whitewater
trip is probably not a good idea.
Ideas?
Richard
