Basic Everglades Adventure 2011 While it's cold and snowy in Iowa you can be enjoying a fun-filled week paddling and camping in the warmth of Everglades National Park. This 1.5 million acre preserve is mostly water, providing diverse paddling opportunities. Our trips focus on the 10,000 Island area near Everglades City. We camp on the keys, paddle the coastal waters and explore a few back country waterways. We're offering one trip only in January 2009. For this trip CanoeSport Outfitters provides the paddling gear, acquires the permits, and guides the group. Each evening we'll have an activity you can participate in, or you can simply relax and soak in the experience. These trips require a minimum amount of kayaking and primitive camping experience. We'll stay in the shallow areas of the Everglades and schedule our distance according to group experience. Porpoises are often seen in this area, as are manatees. Also expect to see osprey, bald eagles, roseate spoonbill, great blue heron, and a variety of egrets. In the back country we may spot an alligator or two. You must provide your own transportation to Everglades City, your own food, camping gear, and personal items. Attending the pre-trip meeting is required. If you can't make this date we will arrange a personal meeting.
