About this event
We'll start on the open water west of the Nisqually Delta, following the shore south to the mouth of McAllister Creek. As we enter it, expect a gentle current as the flood tide carries us first through a forested area on a narrow, twisting river, then into open meadows of tide flats. Floating lunch at the furthest navigable point so long as fallen logs don't stop us as they've tried to in past years (without success we might add). If we make it to the planned end, total trip mileage will be 11 miles. Expect a gentle ebb tide on the way out, but open water with possible wind challenges on the first 2 and/or last 2 miles of the trip. Discover Pass necessary for parking. Trip will leave on time to utilize the tides.
