|  | Boundary Dam Reservior Campsite or Kayak Camping Delayed a week due to poor weather this week-end | | Here is an opportunity to do some kayak camping or day paddles from a campground in one of the more spectacular canyons in the Northwest.We will be arriving on Thursday morning and setting up a campsite at the Forebay Recreation Site. You are welcome to join us or set up on your own site. There is no camp fee, but it's on a "first come" basis. That's why we plan on arriving Thursday morning. Clarks may be there Wednesday.From there we can do day paddles to Pee Wee Falls and up into the canyon. For those who prefer, can paddle their gear upstream to any of the five developed boat access campsites in the canyon. | | When: | Thursday, October 1, 2020 to Sunday, October 4, 2020 | | Location: | Pend Oreille River - Boundary Dam | | Directions: | The Boundary Dam campsite is roughly 120 miles north of
