SUP Paddle Trails in Bend, OR

The Bend Paddle Trails Alliance will soon publish two guides. One for the Deschutes River and one for the Cascade Lakes. We will supply them here at standuppaddlebend.com as soon as they are available.
The scope of the river trail guide was defined to include all of the Deschutes River within Deschutes Country, including stretches of the Little Deschutes River. The Cascade lakes guide includes nine of the high Cascades Lakes including Hosmer Lake, Wickiup Reservoir, Crane Prairie Reservoir, Paulina Lake, East Lake, Cultus Lake, Sparks Lake, Lava Lake, and Elk Lake.

The guide will show suitable water levels for paddling, the put-ins, take-outs, portages, hazards, parking, toilet facilities, points of interest, camping sites and safety and environmental issues. Yahoo!
