Lazy Beaver Race

September 28

The Lazy Beaver Canoe and Kayak Race may not be so lazy this year when it is held on Sept. 28. While for the past several years, the Baraboo River from LaValle to Reedsburg has been fairly open without the need for paddlers to portage or lift over logs, that probably won’t be the case this year. Weather has not been kind to the Baraboo and other southern Wisconsin rivers this year. An extremely wet spring, accompanied by strong winds, knocked a lot of trees down. Unfortunately  many of those trees fell all the way across the Baraboo River. When I paddled from La Valle to Reedsburg in early June, there at least five big jams I had to river ninja my kayak over, under and through, cutting the openings I could with a bow saw and clippers.
