Super Windy Day in the Swamp
Last night (May 9, 2021), I paddled down the White Oak River from Long Point Landing against a 20 mph (33 kph) wind to get to one of my favorite spots. In a kayak, headwinds aren’t the worst thing, but it slow me down! I was planning to camp out overnight at Long Point, but … Continue reading
