Suwannee River Canoe Trip – November, 2013 – [ View the Full Album ]
For our trip this year, we decided to try something a little bit different than our typical back-country backpacking or mountain climbing — a leisurely back-country canoe trip.
The Suwannee River starts in the Okefenokee Swamp in Georgia and proceeds through much of Florida to the Gulf of Mexico. The river itself is 240 miles long, most of which is traversable.
For our adventure, our first time on the Suwannee, we decided to do just a subset of the northern section. The 38-mile stretch from Cone Bridge just north of White Springs, FL to the Suannee Canoe Outpost located in the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Part.
The trip was a great time for the four of us and will definitely be the first of many other future canoe or kayak overnight trips.
