This year we started off at Silverwood Lake in the beautiful High Desert. Just 15 minutes from the 15 freeway off the 138.
All packed up!
Nice day to go paddling!
Here it is...Silverwood Lake. Beautiful scenery and close to home. They only charged $10 and that covered the entire day, parking, and boat inspection. The attendant at the gate was very helpful and informative.
We stayed in the lower part of the lake in the 5 mph area down by the marina.
Its much safer here for paddlers. There are many areas to find a
secluded little piece of beach to have lunch and take some photos.
Great spot! Parking is awesome in the early morning hours on a weekday. Not too many people around until after noon. Just a few fisherman on the dock.
Excellent parking right next to the lake. We got there early in the morning.
The lake opens at 6AM, but since it was a weekday there were no lines.
Getting unloaded and ready to get in the water. Not one other car in the lot. This is my kind of vacation!
Taking a little breather after carrying the kayaks down to the water. Contemplating which way we want to get started in. Either way, the whole area is priceless.
Finally...what a great day to kayak. I packed a lunch. The water is so nice today. It's exciting everytime we get in the water for the first time.
The water is so clear here in this location. You can see every bit of seaweed. Eeww.
This is how I roll...lol
I love early morning on the Lake. Just the ducks and us.
Husband is pretty far ahead of me, but that is fine, we always end up in the same place.
Having an awesome relaxing day.
There are no boats around so it is pretty quiet.
Wow, our own little beach!
This is the more southern part of the marina where the water to get here was a little green and choppier at times from the wind. We were able to find a nice little private beach to have lunch.
What a great day.
Here is a picture of the little beach we found.
Ducks...
We had some lunch guests. Of course they were so cute we couldn't resist.
Getting ready to pack up and get back out on the water.
Back on the lake
We had the best time exploring this lake and all the little coves.
Floating and relaxing.
Awesome!!!
At the end of the day I have to say this was a great
place to kayak and spend some relaxing time.
Stay tuned for our next adventure...
