Trails: I'm leaving that to my 3 Yelp Colleagues' previous reviews. I'm here for a Waterway Trail…read moreReview on the Missisquoi River from Louis' Landing along Route 78 and tracking out North to delta where Lake Champlain and Missisquoi Bay merge.
Traveled one hot and sticky day, out and back, in kayak with Mama Bear and myself Papa Bear. No dog on this journey, just it's Human pets. The total loop for the day was about 8 miles. At our hallway mark, the River Delta, we were approximately 1 Nautical Mile from the Canadian border, which still wasn't open.
Rumor had it, the Mounties had a crack scuba team patrolling out there, called the Canadian Bubblies. I wasn't about to test our fait, so we turned back.
The water trail itself was quite beautiful with wildlife along the shores, in the trees, in the woods, and definitely swimming below (NOT THE BUBBLIES).
Along the way, we observed bald eagle, muskrats, variety of turtles, many other bird and bug types in flight sporting their own unique colorations. One pair of eagle sat peacefully together on a tree limb as we quietly drifted by.
Other power watercraft passed by - cheating themselves of the experience, but this one can't help being a wee bit envious, too.
A couple of days later, in Kayaks and equipped with fishing poles, we took Louis' Landing on an Easterly and North-by-Northeasterly route. This also led to the Missisquoi Bay, however, we turned back after tracking out to a 3rd mile, round out to 6 mile loop.
Along the way, Mama Bear certainly proved her fishing skills and reeled in that nights dinner. Yes, this sad sport paid the wager by cleaning and cooking HER Beautiful Trophy Trout! She did throw me some scraps.
