Crucial Items To Carry To Nashville Canoe Trips

By Angela Green


Spending time with your family as well as friends is necessary. There are so many ways you can spend time with your loved ones. For instance, you can stay indoors and enjoy a movie together, or you can decide to go outdoors. So many activities are waiting for you to enjoy. Also, you do not have to do the same thing you did last weekend or last vacation. It is always good to find new activities like canoeing. This is one of the best outdoor activities you can enjoy with your loved ones. However, you should carry the following items when going to Nashville Canoe Trips.

One of the items that most people forget or overlook is gloves. These are important, but they never cross the minds of most kayakers. For experienced paddlers, gloves may not be so relevant compared to beginners. This is because the paddle may become resistant in water, making you develop blisters. Having blisters on your hands while paddling is the worst experience.

Secondly, it is wise to carry a flashlight. This is important if you are going to spend a weekend at the river. If possible, carry a small lamp as well. You may arrive at the site late in the night and find out that there are no lights around. Thus, without a flashlight, you will have a tough time pitching the tent and moving around. Hence, remember to pack two or three flashlights.

Also, when the weather is hot, people crave for cold drinks. Thus, you should find a cooer that can fit in the boat. Also, the cooler should accommodate all the drinks you want to carry. Additionally, most people like taking a bottle of cold beer while paddling to make the adventure more enjoyable. Hence, a cool box is also essential.

The next thing to carry is sunglasses that have been polarized. This is because you need to see clearly when paddling. The sunray and the reflection of the water may blind you. This may make it difficult for you to see clearly. Hence, you will not enjoy the experience as you will miss some sites. Also, you may not paddle well because of the rays. This may cause some accidents in the water.

More so, you will have your camera, watch and phones with you. If you do not keep them dry, they will get damaged by the water. Therefore, it is wise to buy a quality dry box that is resistant to water to store the items. Additionally, look for quality dry bags as well to store your food and clothing.

Also, if you will sleep at the site, make sure you buy a tent that can fit in your backpack. The shelter should be lightweight as well and made using synthetic material. Having a tent is essential because you need a safe and dry place to sleep at night.

Your safety should be your number one priority. That is why most sites require that people carry life jackets. Hence, ensure that you buy a life jacket even if you will be given another one at the site. Also, bilge pumps and sponges are crucial in case water gets into the boat during storms.
