Help Kp the Adirondacks Afloat!
Paddling and the Adirondacks go together like peanut butter and jelly. With thousands of miles of streams and rivers and
thousands of lakes and ponds, hitting the water in a self-powered craft of any kind is a passion for most Adirondackers.
While paddling is relatively low-impact, there are still some steps paddlers - whether in a canoe, kayak, rowboat, or SUP - can
take to further protect the waterways of the Adirondacks. Follow the paddling excursion below for some tips.
