Please join us for our first ever Three Rivers Land Trust hosted paddle at Crystal Lake! This is a gorgeous lake located near Vass in Moore County. It is a flat water lake at the put-in but as you paddle across the lake you end up in the headwaters of a stream, which is a flooded black gum swamp. It’s a really neat place to explore. We expect water lilies and spatterdock to be blooming, and we are likely to spot lots of great birds including kingfishers, great blue herons, great egrets and more.
Address: 216 Camp Easter Road , Lakeview, NC, 28350
Time to start: Arrive by 8:30am, on the water by 9:00am. Expected duration of 2 hours to complete the 3-mile roundtrip paddle.
Please bring: kayak or canoe, paddle, lifejacket (all participants must wear their lifejackets while on the water), hat, bug spray, sunscreen, water, snacks, water shoes, dry bag for keys/phone.
If you have any questions, contact Crystal at crystal@trlt.org or 704-647-0302.
We look forward to seeing you there!
