We 'launched' from Taghum beach and looped the area for about an hour. Spotted what appeared to be three white Trumpeter Swans, new to us. Ice forming on our paddles, deck and equipment was a sure sign we should head back. Definitely the coldest paddle we’ve ever done. We’ll wait for warmer temps before our next outing.

00:00 Not the most graceful launch we had hoped to slide down the snow into the water. :)
