Bull Sluice Lake is a wonderful place to paddle. When I paddle on the lake and up the Chattahoochee, I usually see plenty of wildlife (ducks, turtles, beavers, and etc.) in addition to the already beautiful landscapes.

With this in mind, Sunday morning,  we will start at Overlook Park on Bull Sluice Lake. We will begin paddling at 9 am sharp,  so that we will be able to enjoy our paddle on the lake, which turns into the Chattahoochee the further up river that we go. From our starting point, we will move up the lake to the Chattahoochee River to Azalea Park and maybe a bit further if we have time. After paddling to at least Azalea Park, we will paddle back down to our starting point at Bull Sluice Lake.

This is reasonably flat water,  so beginners are welcome.

I look forward to paddling with everyone on Sunday!
