What to Expect
This is the competitive heart of Log Days weekend on the water. Paddlers launch at Weston Dam and race downriver to the Cleaver Boat Launch, with every boat timed and the fastest run claiming the prize. Bring your own canoe, kayak, or paddleboard. Solo, tandem, or a full raft!
We'll shuttle you and your boat back to the start, so all you have to focus on is the finish line. Open to experienced paddlers comfortable on moving water; a safety crew will be staged along the course.
What to Bring (Additional)
Your own boat and paddle (gear available upon request)
