By pack_admin | Featured, It's About the Journey, Pack & Paddle Trip Reports | Comments are Closed | 22 April, 2013 | 0

We dropped the boats off in Jennings then dropped the vehicles off in Mermentau.  We had a large group of folks that were eager for the 7 mile paddle down one of the most beautiful and easily accessible rivers in south Louisiana. Half of the group paddled with me before and they are lots of fun,Read more

The weather was going to be great for this trip and apparently everyone knew it because we had a long waiting list.  So the 16 folks that make the trip, along with Kevin and I, had one of the most perfect days that we could have hiked the backbone trail. I must say I wasRead more

We met most of our group at Chicot State Park because they were staying in the cabins, having driven in from New Orleans for the weekend. We put in at the south landing since it was right next to the pavilion we reserved for lunch. There was rain heading our way so we unloaded theRead more

Here’s the story:  There weren’t many sleepy eyes at 4am in the Albertson’s parking lot as 16 fishermen and women gathered.  We were headed way down the bayou south of Houma to Pointe Aux Chenes.  After a quick meeting to go over driving directions and to hand out maps of our fishing location, we wereRead more

Two O’Clock Bayou Paddle – July 14, 2012

By pack_admin | General, It's About the Journey, Pack & Paddle Trip Reports, Past Events & Trips | 1 comment | 18 July, 2012 | 0

2 o’clock bayou is located just off of Hwy 190 and Hwy 71 between Port Barre and Krotz Springs.  We immediately saw several turtles sunning themselves down this seldom used waterway.  Of course there was the ever present red-ear slider but then there was the Mississippi map turtle, it has ridges down the center ofRead more

We dropped the boats off and all passengers at a park just south of I-10 at the first Jennings exit, while the drivers took the vehicles to the Mermentau boat dock.  I have yet to see more than 2 or 3 cars at the park at any one time.  Paddling down the Nezpique, you are not likelyRead more
