| no partners | | This is one of the prettiest places I've kayaked in Arizona. And it's very, very easy. In fact, it's too short. I might not be inclined to go back very often, unless I also plan to camp at one of the BLM boat-in campgrounds along Lake Havasu.
Just to be clear, this wildlife refuge is an arm of Lake Havasu. So it's not as though you are paddling up a river. The lake has backed up into what used to be the lower reaches of Bill Williams River, which is basically just a desert creek. I have done the backpacking trip from Alamo Dam downstream a few miles, but that is way upstream from this area.
Birds I saw, but didn't photograph: Clark's Grebe, Great Egret, Great Blue Heron, Black Phoebe, some sort of brown-headed duck, a cormorant, and the ubiquitous coots, which my dad used to call "mud hens."
I was the only one there, which is how I prefer things. |
