Cold & Snowy
It was cold and snowy on Geneva swamp but any day on the water is great! We had 4 paddlers in 2 canoe’s and 1 kayak. We put in under interstate 79 paddled out a little more than half the distance of the 79 bridge. We then made a hard left to snaked through the Lilly pads. We paddled to the far end of the swamp where we enjoyed hot coffee, hot cocoa, cookies, and a beautiful view. We then paddled back up the swamp passing the 79 bridge and exploring the other end of the swamp, while the snow began to fall. The bridge at route 19 proved to be low and only one paddler limboed under it to get to the other side. At this time it was snowing quite hard. We paddled back to the cars under the interstate 79 bridge where we were shielded from the snow flakes. We covered 4.24 miles in a little over 2 hours. Thank you for a great paddle, with a great club, full of great people.
