Seeking Paddle Buddy for a Few Outings Before I Move to CA

Utah Rivers · Utah and vicinity

Hello, I'm a newbie paddler looking for a paddle buddy. Weekends are usually best. I'm looking for something that isn't too crazy. Also, I'll need help with transport. Someone wrecked into my truck so it's in the shop for a month, and the rental is car with no roof rack That said, I could still bring the car for shuttling. Best wishes, Christopher
