St. Philips to Big Freshwater Cove

We are fortunate to be able to paddle all year in this part of the province. Yesterday our winter paddling group met at the slipway in St. Philips at around 9:30. I doubt if you will find a more enthusiast group of paddlers anywhere. The temperature was about -1 C which was quite balmy compared to the temperature a week ago. Thanks to Stan, Tony, Tobias, Dean and Gerard for a great day.
