Trip Report/Photos
It couldn't have been a more beautiful evening on the Nashua River. We saw a wide range of wildlife, including a blue heron, swans, an eagle and its nest, bats galore and ducks for days. We got back right at twilight with just enough light to strap the kayak to the car. What excellent start to the weekend!
