Wetlands, Wildflowers, Wildlife and Kayaks

At the heart of LTC’s Pigeon River Wildlife Nature Preserve is a wetland complex that is the source of life to many wild creatures. In this remote area the silence is inspiring and the connection to the wild land intimate. Join LTC’s Derek Shiels on a kayak paddling trip up a tributary to the Pigeon River. We won’t go far; this is a float to observe the wildflowers, the silence, and maybe some of the wildlife that thrive in Pigeon River country. Registrants must provide their own kayak, paddle and PFD. Kayak rentals are available through Ryde Marine of Alanson, The Outfitter in Harbor Springs, or BrassWind Landing in Indian River. Group size is limited. High clearance vehicles mandatory to get down the long dirt two-track. Limited to four vehicles or 12 participants. Please contact Derek Shiels at 231-347-0991 or Derek@landtrust.org.
