Inflatable Kayak Blog

With the cold winter weather slowly turning to spring weather, I have been getting the itch to kayak, so I’ve been checking out kayaking blogs and looking for interesting places to launch my Sea Eagle 330 inflatable kayak. I have always thought that I would like to visit Montana. I hear it’s beautiful up there. Though they seem to have plenty of whitewater rivers, I was looking for something a bit more mild and the Jefferson River looked like it might fit what I had in mind. The Jefferson River and the Madison River form the official beginning of the Missouri River in an area that was visited by Lewis and Clark during their expeditions. It’s claimed that when paddling in this area, the scenic beauty is really something, very much like what it would have looked during the Lewis and Clark time, with only very few signs of human habitation and lots of wildlife such as eagles, osprey, herons deer and other waterfowl. The best times to go there are in the spring and fall as the water level can be low during the summer. I’m really looking forward to making this trip.
